About this work

This photo captures actor Henry Ainley in 1902. W. & D. Downey took it in their London studio. It’s a cabinet card print, a common way to share star images back then. These photos were tiny calling cards at first. Later they grew bigger and sturdier. Collectors filled albums with actors, places, and art. Look up more W. & D. Downey photos next.
