About this work

This print shows actress Ellen Terry in a role from a late 19th-century play. Pamela Colman Smith made it around 1900, adding her own hand-tinted colors later. The print marks Terry playing Nance Oldfield, a comedy by Charles Reade. The rights to the play were bought for Terry by her stage partner, Sir Henry Irving.
