T. Rowlandson. The Caricaturist 1895 - 1905

This anonymous engraving from the late 19th century depicts the English caricaturist Thomas Rowlandson, known for his satirical and often humorous sketches. Rowlandson is shown seated in a chair, reading a paper, likely one of his own creations. This work, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, is a testament to Rowlandson's significant role in the development of caricature and his enduring impact on British art.
