British Cartoons
CURATED COLLECTIONRowlandson, Dent, Doyle and the rest of the print shop trade, working through the decades when caricature in Britain was a genuine political force rather than a decoration. The line is quick, the etching is coarse and the jokes are frequently cruel. They hang best in a group, and in a room where people are talking. Made to order at high resolution.
