Artist
W. S. Johnson
W. S. Johnson is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
W. S. Johnson made prints in the mid-1800s, leaving behind the H Beard Print Collection between 1846 and 1890. Their work sits in that crowded print-shop era when shops like the one on Fleet Street turned out affordable, hand-colored images for parlors and pubs. Look at H Beard Print Collection from mid-century, thin paper, soft ink, the kind of picture that might have been pinned above a mantel or tucked into a scrapbook.
Tap any print to see the crackle of the plate mark and the fingerprints of the pressman still in the margins.
