Guy Little Theatrical Photograph is a 1850 photographic by Daniel Sargeant Stacy, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This is a late 19th-century photograph of actor Charles Ashford. The image is one of many theatrical portraits made popular by new photography tech. Actors often posed in costume for these small, collectible prints. This one was likely sold to fans as a "carte de visite" or later "cabinet card."
