Humour pavement sailor art as lithography 19th century cartoon
This is a cartoon etching by the well-known Victorian social caricaturist / cartoonist George Cruikshank (1792 - 1878), dated November 1st, 1829. (1829 is in the reign of William IV, but most of Cruikshanks artistic work was in the long reign of Queen Victoria.) Cruikshank went on to illustrate a number of the books of Charles Dickens. Title: Lithography Description: Two boys look down on the work of art on a stone pavement. From the naval rope-and-anchor drawing, the ragged artist has a nautical background. Lithography, invented in 1796 (just 35 years before this cartoon was drawn) is a method for printing using a stone or a metal plate with a completely smooth surface. It was used to print text or artwork in a professional printing works. Cruikshank compares the smooth, professional lithographic limestone to the rough stone used by the amateur artist on a pavement.
