Artist
J Corner
J Corner is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
British printmakers in the 1790s often etched portraits of actors on the London stage. J Corner’s 1790 print captures Mr. Lewis of the Theatre Royal Covent Garden mid-season, his costume clearly detailed and the stage in the background. The sheet is small, a single sheet you’d slip into a pocket or frame on a dressing-room wall. Tap the print to see how the engraver balanced fine lines for facial features with bold hatching for the curtain’s folds.
