F. de Fournier

This guy made prints of beards—seriously. In 1829, he turned facial hair into fashion, carving every curl and whisker into copper until the plates wore thin. His prints look like a barber’s wildest catalog: curls tumble down chins, sideburns sweep cheeks, and mustaches twist like question marks. Why he chose beards? Who knows—maybe he loved the texture or just ran out of other ideas. Slide into *H Beard Print Collection* and you’ll see what all the fuss was about: a groomed forest of 19th-century vanity.
