About this work

Description

Souvenir card showing a family grouping. It is an actual photograph mounted on card. Baron Littlefinger was a stage name of Ernesto Magri and Count Rosebud was a stage name of Primo Magri. Ages and heights are given on the reverse, placing this at about 1884 (possibly 1885). It would probably have been sold as a souvenir at places where they were exhibited as part of a freak or variety show.
