H Beard Print Collection is a 1753 by Unknown, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a crowd watching performers on stage. The actors wear animal masks—foxes, donkeys, even a crocodile. One man in a dog suit juggles while a monkey dances. This comes from a London theater where people went to laugh at silly plays. The prints were cheap, so everyone could buy them. Look for prints like this at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
A print from the H. Beard Collection depicts Mrs. Midnight's Animal Comedians, an illustration from 1753.
