Linton- Life in the Collections


William James Linton:
11) The Descent from the Cross after Rembrandt, from: The Illustrated London News.
London 1854
Single sheet, taken from the ILN
Also after the Illustrated London News had ended the collaboration with his workshop at the end of 1847, Linton continued to provide them rather regularly with engravings, mainly reproductions of paintings. The engraving after Rembrandt demonstrates how the expressive mode of interpretation, which became characteristic of him, took shape.
