Description: | There are two almost identical pencil transfer drawings of the Long-tailed Fieldmouse by Thomas Bewick. One (shown here) is in the Pease Collection at Newcastle City Library and the other is in the Natural History Society of Northumbria's Collection. Both, presumably, are studies for the engraving in his book, 'Quadrupeds' (1790), p.361. The Society's mouse is inscribed 'Field Mouse Male'. Perhaps this one is the female? | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1790 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Thomas Bewick | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/discoveringb... | Go to resource |
