This print is a music cover from the 1800s. It shows the cover art for an opera piece called *In Infancy* from *Artaxerxes*, sung by Madame Vestris. The print was made in London by Jefferys & Co. It’s a simple sheet meant to catch your eye in shops. Covers like this were how people picked new songs back then. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more prints.
