About this work

This photograph is titled Guy Little Theatrical Photograph. It's a work by R. W. Thrupp from the mid to late 19th century. The subject of the photograph is Jenny Louise Hengler. Photography was a new development during this time, and many actors and actresses had their pictures taken for "cartes de visite" or "cabinet cards". To learn more about the techniques used in photography during this era, look up the technique of albumen prints, but for now, check out the museum: Victoria and Albert Museum.
