This print shows singer Marietta Alboni in a portrait style. Made by John Jabez Edwin Mayall, it was part of a news supplement. The era mix of Impressionism and Realism shows in the print’s look. The print sits in the Victoria and Albert Museum’s collection. It came from The Illustrated News of the World’s supplement. That adds a slice of 1860s media life to the image.
