Description: | The Northumberland beauty spot of Bywell attracted a number of artists in the 19th century. The tailcoats and top hats of the two anglers show that they are gentlemen. At this time, angling was regarded as an acceptable gentlemen's hobby. The little bay to the left of the anglers is similar to the subjects in bookplate designs that Luke Clennell made whilst an apprentice wood-engraver with Thomas Bewick in Newcastle. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | artists living in the North East watercolours other North East buildings and views art designers North East artists leisure men | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
