Artist

Ackermann & Co.

Ackermann & Co. is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Ackermann & Co. ran a print shop in London where Regency England’s brightest streets met the latest gossip. They turned current events into postcard-sized prints and sold them by the shopload, like early versions of Instagram memes. A friend would steer you to the H Beard Print Collection from 1812, tiny, hand-colored scenes of London coffee houses and carriage rides that still feel like yesterday’s social media feed.
