Nicholas Laneare is a 1850 by Unknown, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
You see a black-and-white print of a man in a suit, facing left. His hair is short, his expression calm. The print is crisp with fine lines. It looks like a portrait meant for a book or newspaper. This is one of many small prints made in the 1800s. Back then, publishers often sold these to sell famous people’s faces. This one shows Nicholas Laneare, a person who isn’t well-known today. If you want to see more prints like this, look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
A print depicting Nicholas Laneare, produced by T. Gordon in London during the late 19th century, is part of the Harry Beard Collection.
