Artist

Guttenbrunn, I.A.

Guttenbrunn, I.A. is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

I.A. Guttenbrunn disappeared from records after 1825, leaving behind just one set of prints. He spent his short career sketching London’s back alleys and shopfronts, always in black ink on rough paper. The prints are tiny, smaller than a postcard, but packed with details like a hatter’s tools or a cat asleep on a crate.

Why does he belong here? Tap “H Beard Print Collection” and zoom in; you’ll spot a butcher’s knife catching the light in the top left corner, like he froze the whole street in one glance.
