This print shows a man dressed in fancy 18th-century clothes. He’s wearing a big, fluffy hat and a long coat with buttons down the front. His face is drawn with simple lines, and the background is just a plain, textured gray. The text below says he’s playing the role of *Tancred*, likely from a play. The artist signed it as Thomas Worlidge, and it was printed in London around 1745. If you like this style, check out the Baroque movement next.
