This print shows a full-length picture of Mrs Hartley dressed up as Hermione from Shakespeare’s *The Winter’s Tale*. It was made in 1780 by two artists named Fielding and Walker. The print mixes theater and portrait art. The museum calls it part of Romanticism, which loved drama and feeling. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see the real print.
