Sorry, no right answer yet.

Sorry Love, no. Not as famous as him, most active as a book illustrator.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
It looks like a white bull so I'm guessing at the Chillingham Bull? No idea of the artist though.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Wendy has it! I am not going to insist on the artist. See THIS for a Wiki article on Thomas Bewick and look at his images. You're right Wendy and it is the Chillingham Bull. See THIS for more information.
Next one?

A quick one for the steam engine buffs. This picture shows one of the Bancroft pistons complete with Stanley's brewing up cup.
What is the name of the other piston?

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Should have come on last night - Bewick Lived at Cherryburn (not far from me in one diection) and the Chillingham White Cattle - or should that be Wild Cattle - are notv far in another direction ...
One of the few I could have got, I don't usually get that many of the mystery objects. But I find it very interesting.
