Room 136
Thomas Rowlandson
1757–1827, England (London), Karikatur
Thomas Rowlandson zeichnete das London des späten 18. Jahrhunderts mit spitzer Feder und viel Humor: Wahlen und Glücksspiel, Gichtkranke und Feinschmecker, Pferderennen, Postkutschen und Gasthöfe. Seine handkolorierten Radierungen hingen in den Schaufenstern der Verleger und wurden gekauft wie heute Zeitschriften. Reisen führten ihn nach Frankreich und in die Niederlande, wo er Antwerpen und Amsterdam zeichnete.
