Artist
Jungwierth
Jungwierth is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Jungwierth turned loose, hand-colored prints that bring 1700s life to paper, think turbans, sashes and stiff Ottoman silks framed in simple lines. One sheet shows “Turkish sultans, sultanas and other historical figures” mid-1766, each face crisp, each costume bright enough to read from across a room. If you like the way prints freeze costume and ceremony in time, tap the 1766 sheet and see how a single color lift can turn a print into a little living history.
