This print shows a full-length portrait of a character dressed as Cyrano. The artist used color to bring the figure to life in 1900. It feels like a snapshot of someone about to step onto a stage. The portrait likely shows Edmond Rostand, who wrote the play "Cyrano de Bergerac." It was published in Vanity Fair on June 20, 1901. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more prints.
