H Beard Print Collection is a work by Johann Christian Schoeller, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows two sides of an actor, Herr T. Nestroy. It’s an old etching colored by hand. One side shows him as a poet in black and white. The other side shows him in a strange yellow and blue soldier’s uniform. The images come from two different plays he performed in. One play is called *Weder Lorberbaum noch Bettelstab*. The other is *Twelve Girls in Uniform*. If you like prints of actors, look up Schoeller, Johann Christian next.
A hand-coloured etching by Johann Christian Schoeller depicts the actor Herr T. Nestroy in two roles from the Vienna stage. On the left, he appears in a black suit and white shirt as a poet in *Weder Lorbeerbaum noch Bettelstab*; on the right, he is shown in a mismatched yellow and blue uniform as a disreputable soldier in *Twelve Girls in Uniform*. The work is part of the Harry Beard Collection.
