Artist

J Roberts

J Roberts is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

They made prints in London during the late 1700s, documenting everyday scenes and news. One sheet shows the H Beard Print Collection’s take on a May day in 1776, another captures January 7 the following year. Both prints carry the same publisher’s mark at bottom right. Look closer and you’ll see street sellers, carriages, and handbills in crisp lines. Tap the January 1777 sheet to zoom in on the shop signs near Temple Bar.
