Artist

Ambrose, C.

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

C. Ambrose made hand-colored prints in early 1800s England. In *H Beard Print Collection* from November 1830, you’ll find folksy scenes of animals and country life printed in crisp outlines and lightly brushed colors. This kind of finely finished print was popular before photography took over—think of it as the Instagram filters of its day, but carved on wood and touched up by hand. Tap in to see how the ink and watercolor blend on the page.
