This print shows a man on stage, dressed for a play from 1791. It’s a small engraving, not a painting—just ink on paper. The artist used fine lines to capture a single figure. The man’s role is named in the title: Jack Meggot from The Suspicious Husband. That play was all the rage back then. Next time you’re in London, swing by the Victoria and Albert Museum to see prints like this.
