James Bretherton
James Bretherton is an etcher whose work belongs to the British satirical print tradition of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. His subjects are drawn from everyday urban life, and the surviving example here, The Rat Catcher, is rendered in etching. The archive holds a single sheet by Bretherton, representing his etching technique and offering a compact point of entry into his graphic output.
