This is a late 19th-century photo of Pauline Lucca. The picture was made by Mr. Krizwanek. It’s held at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Victorian actors often posed for photos meant to sell or collect. Studios used albumen prints on stiff card—early versions of “cartes de visite.” Pauline Lucca was a famous opera singer at the time. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
