National Types. Ethiopia.

National Types. Ethiopia.

G. Bridgman delin. Printed by C.F. Kell, Castle St, Holborn E.C. Deposé.
Reynolds & Co. 32 St James St. London [n.d., c.1880.].
Tinted lithograph. Printed area 335 x 205mm (13¼ x 8") large margins.
An appallingly-racist caricature of an Ethiopian in smart European dress, but bandy-legged and feet pointing sideways. The Amon Carter Museum of American Art identifies the artist as the Canadian George Bridgman (1864-1943) who taught anatomy for artists at the Art Students League of New York for some 45 years.
See Amon Carter Museum of American Art 1974.45 for 'America' from this series.
