This print shows William Blanchard playing Ralph in a play called *Maid of the Mills*. It’s a portrait made by Samuel De Wilde in 1792. The style fits the Romantic era, all about emotion and drama. The print was published by J. Bell the same year. It lives at the Victoria and Albert Museum now. Fun fact: William Blanchard was a famous actor back then. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
