M. & M. Skelt is a Romanticism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

These 19th-century printers made hand-colored prints that captured everyday scenes and popular culture. The H Beard Print Collection shows everything from royal parades to street-life jokes, all pressed onto paper and sold in shops and fairs. Look for the 9th October 1843 sheet that prints a full page of tiny figures and flags celebrating Queen Victoria’s birthday. Want a closer look? Tap the sheet’s wide border crowded with faces and hats.
