Guy Little Theatrical Photograph is a 1869 photographic by Unknown, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This photo shows Madame Grivot, an actress, in a theatrical costume. She's posing in a studio setting. The photo is interesting because it was made for a "carte de visite", a type of small photo card that was popular back then. These cards were like business cards, but with a photo instead of a name and address. You can learn more about this type of photography at the museum: Victoria and Albert Museum.
