About this work
This print shows a woman on stage in a long dress. She’s caught mid-motion, like she’s singing or reacting. The work is a print, not a painting, from 1836.
The scene comes from Donizetti’s opera Anna Bolena. Giulia Grisi played the lead role. The print itself was published by J. Mitchell that same year.
