This 19th-century studio took crisp portraits of London actors on cabinet cards—playbills and lace collars frozen in silver gelatin. Their Guy Little Theatrical Photograph shows one such sitter mid-regal pose, backstage props just out of frame. Step closer and you’ll spot the faint stamp of L. Caldesi & Co. on the mount. Tap the photo to inspect the actor’s costume details and printing marks.
