Artist

Day, C

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

C Day had a habit of sketching on the back of bus tickets—tiny, sharp lines that captured faces in transit. He made his name printing theatrical crowds: figures in top hats and shawls jostling for space in the cheap seats. If you’ve ever stood in the back of the Old Vic during a matinée, you’ve seen his trick—people half in shadow, half in light, always moving. Look up his *H Beard Print Collection* to see how he turned a single night at the theatre into a whole world.
