H Beard Print Collection is a 1876 by Unknown, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a scene of the prince and princess of Wales at the Royal Italian Opera. The scene is from a newspaper cutting, which is interesting because it gives us a glimpse into what people were reading about back then. It also shows how royal events were covered in the media. You can learn more about this kind of printmaking by looking into the technique of chiaroscuro.
