Description: | This poignant little sketch was drawn after Luke Clennell, Thomas Bewick's former pupil, became mentally ill around 1814. He turned to writing dreadful poetry but he never lost the ability to draw. This sketch depicts the church where his cousin Luke Mackford is entombed. An inscription on the reverse says 'Drawn by Clennell when insane and mounted by himself on this paper'. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: unknown | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Luke Clennell | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/discoveringb... | Go to resource |
