Artist

Punch

Punch is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This artist made bold prints and paintings in the mid-1800s, blending bold lines with sharp humor. Their “H Beard Print Collection” from August 7, 1841 shows a lively scene full of expressive faces and everyday detail, while the earlier painting “Durga” (around 1750) captures the goddess with strong colors and clear outlines. Look closer at the print’s crowded street scene and you’ll spot the playful energy that made their work stand out. Tap “H Beard Print Collection” to zoom in on the lively crowd.
