Artist

W. J. Worboyes

W. J. Worboyes is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

W. J. Worboyes treated printing like handwriting, sketching bold lines and playful shapes straight onto the stone. He once rolled out a whole city’s worth of posters for a single parade, ink still wet on the press when the crowds arrived. Hunt down his 1864 Print Collection—if you like the way a poster feels like a secret note meant for everyone, you’ve found your guy.
