Rowlandson 1799 |
| Author: |
Thomas Rowlandson 1756-1827 |
| Year: |
1799 |
| Description: |
Rowlandson drew the 4th London rhino at the Exeter Change. The print was meant to be colored by hand and was a satirical comparison of the human and animal kingdoms. The above image appears again in reverse as the lower part with a man's profile with that of a camel above in a rare 1822 album ( three known to exist) of pen and ink drawings and watercolours entitled 'Comparative Anatomy; Resemblances of Man and Beast', most certainly influenced by Lavater's popular book at the time. |
