This print shows the outside of the Philharmonic Hall in Liverpool. It’s a lithograph, a kind of print made with greasy ink on stone. You can see shadows on the building’s walls and columns. The print was made around 1849. It’s part of the Harry Beard Collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum. It’s a quiet record of a real place, not just decoration. Check out the Philharmonic Hall itself next time you’re in Liverpool.
