Artist

Thompson

Thompson is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This artist made a single print of a singer on stage in 1824. In “Signora Pasta of the Théâtre Royal Italien at Paris,” she captured the moment in crisp black lines on paper. The scene belongs to the early 1800s, when engravers raced to freeze opera stars in ink. Tap the print to zoom into the artist’s sharp lines and the singer’s detailed costume.
