This print shows a man named John Liston dressed as a made-up character called Baron Altrodoff. It’s a print, not a painting, made in early 1800s London. Fun fact: the print was sold by I. L. Mark right here in the city. Liston was a well-known actor of the time. To see more prints by this artist, look up Marks.
