Portret van Yorke Stephens in 'On Change' before 1886

This photograph, taken before 1886 by Herbert Rose Barraud, is a portrait of the composer Yorke Stephens. It was likely taken for the publication "The Theatre" as indicated by the text below Stephens' signature. The portrait is a bust-length, showing Stephens in a three-quarter pose with his head turned to the left. He is wearing a dark jacket and tie and has a mustache. The photograph is a formal portrait, and the subject's expression is serious. This artwork, a part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a valuable historical document offering insight into the life and work of a prominent composer.
