J. & J. Boydell

J. & J. Boydell is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

John and Josiah Boydell ran one of London’s biggest print shops in the late 1700s. They turned paintings into affordable prints so regular people could hang Shakespeare scenes on their walls. Their February 1, 1791 print from the H Beard Collection shows a famous play character in crisp lines, perfect if you like old theater posters. Flip over to explore the Boydell folio and see 400 more prints from their shop.
