J. Stockdale
J. Stockdale is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
We don’t know much about J. Stockdale, no birth date, no death, just a name on some old prints. They moved in the busy world of London’s theater scene around the 1800s, capturing actors mid-gesture like someone snapping photos backstage. Most of their known work shows up in the H Beard Print Collection, a huge archive of theater history.
One print from September 3, 1808, freezes a comic moment from the play The Weathercock, a show almost forgotten now, except for this. Tap The Weathercock (1808) in the app to see what made audiences laugh two centuries ago.
