United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
Robert Gallon is an United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland Romanticism artist. 6 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Robert Gallon made mid-1800s prints that sold as light entertainment. In 1843 he published five numbered sheets titled “The Pet of the Ballet,” tiny scenes of dancers and their pampered lap-dogs. These prints appear in the H. Beard Print Collection, a grouping of popular British prints from the same century. Look next at “The Pet of the Ballet. / No. 2” to see how Gallon framed fluffy pets inside the world of the stage.
