Guy Little Theatrical Photograph is a 1867 photographic by London Stereoscopic and Photographic Company, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This photo shows actor George Belmore from the play *No Thoroughfare* at the Adelphi Theatre. Taken in 1867, it’s a carte de visite—those small portrait cards people collected back then. Photography was brand new in the 1860s, so actors posed for these cards to sell to fans. They printed the photos on stiff card with the photographer’s name. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
