Thomas Rowlandson (Famous Watercolour Painters)

This collection of drawings illustrates the talent of Thomas Rowlandson as he captures on paper both the popular and aristocratic joyous ribaldry of the time, with a charming and humorous wit.A talented painter and graduate of the London Royal Academy, Rowlandson was also a gambler and a bon vivant. A keen observer of the human comedy and a master caricaturist, he published numerous erotic illustrations, etchings and engravings which have kept all their vigor for our enduring pleasure.This volume is part of the Classic Erotic Art collection published by Jones and Jones Publishers (Whitworth Karlin Editor).
