Artist

Woolnoth

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

Woolnoth spent most of his life printing the daily news instead of painting grand halls. The one print that stands out is *Mr Liston as Clown*—a cheap, hand-colored sheet you can still buy on eBay for under twenty bucks. His work belongs in Gallery Tiles because it’s proof that even the most disposable art can outlast its moment; tap the thumbnail and you’ll land in the British Museum’s 1822 print collection, where you can zoom in on every smudged ink line and guess which colors were added by hand the next morning.
