James Whittle’s print shows a lively scene from a 19th-century play. A portrait sits above printed song lyrics. The image advertises sheet music for “All the world’s in Paris!” This sheet music once belonged to Mr. Grimaldi—he sang it in the pantomime called Harlequin Whittington. The words sit right under his picture. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints like this.
