H Beard Print Collection is a 1849 by Smyth, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
An 1849 illustration depicts a nighttime lake scene from a ballet titled *Electra, or the Lost Pleiad* at Her Majesty’s Theatre, featuring a central turbaned figure glowing with light above the water. Six identical luminous figures float in a semicircle in the star-filled sky above him, while two large groups of spectators observe from the lake’s edges.
