Description: | The Northumberland beauty spot of Bywell attracted a number of artists in the nineteenth 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. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1800 to 1815 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Luke Clennell | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/discoveringb... | Go to resource |
