John Smith
John Smith is represented in this archive by a single etching, The Second Oriental Head (reverse copy), a work that places him within the graphic tradition of the etched portrait head. The plate demonstrates the technique of etching as his sole medium here, and the subject matter centres on the oriental head as a motif. The collection holds just this one sheet, with no life dates, nationality, or date of printing recorded by the Met, so the impression cannot be assigned to a specific period of the artist's activity.
