Artist
William J. Tipping
William J. Tipping is a Romanticism artist. 11 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This British artist drew the ruins of an ancient Roman city in 1842. Look at the crumbling columns and stone arches in Grand Temple Gerasa, the tiered Theatre, and the small sketches of the Bridge & Bath. These exacting ink drawings show a place called Gerasa—today’s Jerash in Jordan—exactly as it looked in the 19th century. Tap “Grand Temple Gerasa” to zoom in on the details.
