H Beard Print Collection is a 1850 by Horace Vernet, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a woman dressed as Cendrillon, a character from an opera. She's wearing a nice gown and a crown. The opera was popular back then, and this print was published by Martinet, which is interesting because it shows how art and music were connected at the time, with prints like this one helping to promote performances. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist: Vernet, Horace.
