H Beard Print Collection is a 27 by Unknown, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a scene with several people, possibly actors, on a scale. The people in the print are likely famous actors from the 1750s. They are all dressed up and seem to be being weighed on a scale, which is a funny idea. The print is part of the Harry Beard Collection at the museum: Victoria and Albert Museum.
The print titled *The Theatrical Steel-Yards of 1750*, etched in 1751, depicts figures including Mrs. Cibber, Spranger Barry, James Quin, Peg Woffington, John Rich, Henry Woodward, George Anne Bellamy, and David Garrick. Published on April 27, 1751, the work is part of the Harry Beard Collection.
