Charles Jameson Grant

Charles Jameson "C. J. G." Grant (fl. 1830–1852) was a British artist and illustrator, chiefly remembered for his work as an engraver of political caricatures during the mid-1830s.[1] His most remarkable work was a series of caricatures published under the title The Political Drama (1833–1835).[1] Although he stopped self-publishing, he still submitted wood engravings to contemporary radical magazines before eventually disappearing into obscurity.[1][2][3]
