Guy Little Theatrical Photograph is a 1850 photographic by Naudin, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sepia photograph depicts Agnes Burdett, mounted on a card bearing the photographer's printed name and the actress's signature. Produced as a carte de visite, it is an albumen print made from a glass negative, a common format for actor portraits in the 1860s. The image is part of a larger collection of theatrical photographs assembled by Guy Tristram Little and later donated to the Victoria and Albert Museum. The carte de visite format, patented in 1854, was widely collected during the 1860s before being replaced by larger cabinet cards in the late 1870s.
