Artist

Folly

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

Folly made prints in late 18th-century London. One of their known images is H Beard Print Collection (29th March 1784), a satirical print showing public life in the city. The scene captures street crowds and shop signs near Fleet Ditch, a polluted waterway then being paved over. Look for the worn wooden posts and the uneven cobbles—small details that root the print in its time and place. Tap the print to zoom into those everyday marks.
