Scope and content
Print of King Lear and Cordelia by James Barry. Although the print is given the publication date 1776 this is thought to be a later version. It reproduced Barry's painting first exhibited in 1774. This version does not have the Shakespearean quote that was on the first print which was published in 1776.
