Artist

W. C. Webb

W. C. Webb is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This artist made hand-colored prints around the 1830s, part of a growing interest in affordable pictures for homes. Look for a delicate scene in the H Beard Print Collection, where outlines are filled with soft tints. The print shows a quiet moment, typical of the small decorative images that middle-class buyers liked to frame.

Tap the print itself to see how the color was laid by hand, one sheet at a time.
