This print shows everyday street life in 1797 London. Four famous men appear in the scene. The print belongs to the Romanticism movement. The artist, Richard Newton, made this when he was just 18. It’s part of a series called “Cries of London.” Newton kept the style simple but full of character. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print.
