Signor Eduardo Majeroni

Eduardo Majeroni (1840-1891) was an Italian actor, manager, and producer. He and his wife Giula (1850-1903) came to the Australasia with Giula's aunt Adelaide Ristori in 1875. Between 1884 and 1886 Eduardo co-managed the Sydney Opera House with WJ Wilson. The monogram of HJW in the image suggests that Herbert J Woodhouse (1855-1920) prepared a sketch from the photograph, that was then lithographed. Faint creasing in lower margin and faint mark at the very bottom of the sheet.
