Introduction:
James Kendrick was not known for being a silhouette artist. However, he produced a book containing 35 lithographed silhouettes called “Profiles of Warrington Worthies”. These were original profiles by Kendrick, engraved by one S Holden. Most of the silhouettes are in plain black, with little detail, and the bust line terminations all vary making future identification of pieces difficult.
