Alexander Bassano is an Impressionism artist. 11 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Alexander Bassano took photographs of actors on stage and in costume during the late 1800s. You’ll find five of his “Guy Little Theatrical Photograph” prints here—one from 1882, another from 1887, and three more from the late 1890s. Each shows a performer caught in character, frozen in black-and-white. Tap any card to see the actor’s name or the play they’re in.
