Anthropomorphic heads study
Book Description
pen and ink wash on thick wove paper, 165 x 205 mm. (6 1/2 x 8 in), signed lower centre, a small loss in a blank area lower left
Dealer Notes
a small sheet of three heads, one a satirical human, the other two on the bodies of fish, resembling three of the four studies on a similar sheet in the V&A collection, a prime example of Rowlandson’s interest in anthropomorphic sketches of human and animal heads for comic physiognomic comparison
