Description: | John Dobson (1787-1865) was the North-East's most outstanding 19th-century architect. He designed Central Station (opened 1850) and many of the Greek Revival-style buildings along the east side of Grey Street. He also designed country houses in Northumbria. Dobson was also a skilled watercolour painter. William Dixon was a North-East portrait painter. He was a friend of John Dobson, and together they painted a stage backdrop for the theatre at Newcastle. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1822 to 1828 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | William [attr] Dixon | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/artonline/se... | Go to resource |
