Isaac Robert Cruickshank

Isaac Robert Cruickshank made quick, lively drawings full of personalities and happenings. He left behind a small sheet from the early 1800s packed with figures and faces, showing everyday scenes in ink or pencil. Without a movement label to tie him down, his style feels loose and observational, like a snapshot sketched on the spot. Want to see more of his loose crowd scenes?
