C. Westmacott

C. Westmacott made hand-colored prints in early 19th-century London. Their only known work in our collection is the full-page print H Beard Print Collection (1st December 1815), a crisp news-illustration style portrait that feels closer to the broadsides you’d tack up in a tavern than to a museum print. If you like the gritty ink lines and the day-stamped detail of that sheet, tap into the bundle to see how the whole print looked before it was trimmed down to a single tile.
