Marie Anne Bourlier made this print in 1812. It’s a portrait of Mrs Dickons, published in a magazine called La Belle Assemblée. The print sits at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Romanticism shows up in the print’s mood and style. It’s a fashion plate, so it also doubles as a snapshot of early 1800s dress and taste. Look up Bourlier, Marie Anne next.
