About this work

This print shows a woman named Madame Vestris, made in 1847. It’s a portrait on paper, not a painting. A London publisher called Richard Bentley put it out that same year. Louisa Sharpe made the print. She worked in the Romantic style, which often showed people with strong feelings. Want to see more prints like this one? Check the Victoria and Albert Museum.
