Richard Newton is a Romanticism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Richard Newton made prints in late-18th-century London. He left behind crisp political satires and social scenes like H Beard Print Collection (1797), tiny windows on the era’s quarrels and fads. His linework is sharp and his jokes land fast, the kind of thing you’d tack up on a coffeehouse wall.

Tap H Beard Print Collection (11 February 1793) next to see his take on a news day turned into picture gossip.
