About this work

This print shows a portrait of a woman playing a character from Shakespeare’s play *The Merry Wives of Windsor*. The artist, Mayall, made it in the 19th century as part of a collection donated by Harry Beard. It was published by a London printing company, not painted but printed. The photo-like style fits the period’s popular theater portraits. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more from the Harry Beard Print Collection.
