Artist
Anker Smith
Anker Smith is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Anker Smith made finely detailed prints in the late 1700s and early 1800s. His engraving Sophonisba shows a dramatic moment from an ancient Roman story, with rich textures and careful shading. These prints belong to the same crisp, story-focused style you’ll find in books of the time. Next, tap the portrait lines in Sophonisba to trace how light and shadow define the scene.
