H Beard Print Collection is a 1750 by Chester (Charles) Harding, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a scene from a famous Shakespeare play. It’s a small black-and-white picture made in the late 1700s. The artist used a printing trick to hide the fat knight inside a laundry basket. John Elias Haid sold these prints to the public. Next time you’re in London, peek at the real print at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
