About this work

This photo shows Ellen Terry on stage in 1901. Window & Grove took it for the Guy Little Collection. It’s a black-and-white shot of her playing Volumnia in *Coriolanus* at London’s Lyceum Theatre. Back then photos were still new. Actors loved them for publicity and fans collected them like trading cards. Want to see more old stage photos? Visit the Victoria and Albert Museum.
