Anonymous, French, 19th century
Anonymous, French, 19th century, is represented here by a small group of satirical and commercial prints, among them the caricature series Caricatures Anglaises and a trade card for the printer A. Salmon. The sheets belong to the etching tradition of the period, one of them finished by hand in colour, and reflect the lively graphic culture of nineteenth-century France in both social satire and everyday printing work. This collection holds two such works, an etching and a hand-coloured etching, with impressions up to 1894.
