Testing The Water by Larry S. Cruikshank

Growing up working at the print factory, and with Isaac as a teacher, meant that George already had a large body of work by the time he was thirteen. George and his brother, Robert Cruikshank, helped their father with etching, while their mother and their sister, Eliza, colored in their finished prints.

The Cruikshank family opened a print factory when George was a child, a venture in which every family member played a part. He was able to observe people of all social classes within his own neighborhood, a practice which served him well in his career as a caricaturist.

After attending elementary school for a brief period, George became his father’s apprentice and studio assistant where he could “play at etching on some of his copperplates.” As a boy, George would etch bits of shadow or add background figures to his father’s work, and as he grew older his father would assist him with parts of his own etchings.
