This photo shows Julia Neilson as Drusilla in a play called *The Dancing Girl* at the Haymarket Theatre. It was taken in 1891 by Elliot & Fry, a photography studio. Back then, actors often had studio portraits made for fans. These were printed on card, like calling cards, and sold as souvenirs. Next time you're in London, check out the same photo at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
