The print is titled H Beard Print Collection and was created by J. Mortimer. It's interesting that this print depicts a character from a play, which was not a common subject for art at the time. The fact that it's based on a specific scene from The Merchant of Venice adds another layer to its meaning. You can learn more about this style by looking into the movement: Romanticism.
