About this work

This print shows a caricature of actor Henry Irving from 1901. It was made by Ernest Haskell, an American printmaker. The Tatler published it that same year. Fun fact: The Tatler was a popular British magazine full of news, gossip, and drawings back then. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum online if you want to see more of Haskell’s prints.
