This print shows a woman’s portrait. It’s an early 19th-century print, small and crisp. Made by L. Viardot, it sits in the Victoria and Albert Museum’s collection. The image features Mademoiselle Sontag, a singer of the time. Prints like this were how people shared likenesses before photos. It’s a quiet slice of history you can still see today.
