H Beard Print Collection is a 1825 by E. F. Lambert, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a man in costume. It’s a portrait done in stipple engraving, a style that uses dots to build up tone. The artist is E. F. Lambert. The work plays with the idea of character. It shows Mr. Liston dressed as Moll Flaggon, a comic stage role. That kind of playful portrait was popular in the Romantic era. If you like this style, hunt down more prints at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
