H Beard Print Collection is a work by j.l. Julien, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a tense moment from a comic opera. Two figures—one woman in gloves and an apron, one man in rough clothes—seem to argue in the first act’s closing scene. The opera, Madame Angot or la Poissarde parvenue, mocked class clashes in late 1700s Paris. Its mix of street talk and satire made it a hit. Next, look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
