Artist
Edward Smith
Edward Smith is an Impressionism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Edward Smith spent his days behind a camera in late-1800s London, chasing the flicker of footlights instead of mountain peaks. He turned actors’ sweat and greasepaint into silver prints you could almost smell, leather shoes on a damp stage, rouge still warm on a cheek. If you’ve ever paused in the theatre district and wondered what the 1887 glare of gaslight looked like on a laughing face, tap “Guy Little Theatrical Photograph” and step inside the glare.
