Description: | This is the engraving made for the 'Illustrated London News', taken from a watercolour in the Laing's collections by John Eyre which was exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists in 1896. Eyre said that the picture was the outcome of a visit to Newcastle where he was shown the room at St Nicholas' Churchyard where Bewick worked. He made a sketch at the time and this is the result. It is a rare example of what the inside of the workshop may have looked like. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1896 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | John Eyre | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/discoveringb... | Go to resource |
