This print shows a man playing a funny theater role. It’s a lithograph from around 1825, made by G.E. Madeley. The scene looks playful and dramatic at once. The print is part of a bigger collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum. It’s labeled as a portrait of Mr. Liston dressed as Sam Swipes in a play called Exchange no Robbery. If you like this style, check out the Romanticism movement next.
