Carington Bowles is a Romanticism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This British printmaker turned the daily scene into shareable snapshots in the 1770s, carving crisp news and satire into paper. Two of his dated prints from 1772 and 1775 show Londoners at work and play, while a later sheet from 1784 records a city square frozen in afternoon light. Tap into the H Beard Print Collection to see these exact sheets and feel the newsprint ink under your fingers.
