About this work

This print pokes fun at a famous singer from the early 1800s named Giovanni Velluti. It shows him backstage looking curious about something odd. The print came out in London in 1825. It was published by John Fairburn and is part of a group of prints aimed at humor. The scene uses sheet music in the background, which adds to the joke. Look up the artist Dick Doublestone next.
