R. Hicks

R. Hicks is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

British printmakers in the late 1700s often turned portraits of politicians and writers into popular engravings. This artist made a print of Richard Brinsley Sheridan, the Irish-born playwright and Whig MP whose wit lit up London’s theater and parliament. Look for the sharp collar and confident gaze in the sheet titled Richard Brinsley Sheridan Esq. If you want to see more British prints from the same era, tap the print itself.
