Background:
The Dog prints on this page are from a folio by the British natural history illustrator
George Vernon Stokes (1873-1954).
Stokes was a painter in oil, watercolors and
pastels of animal subjects and landscapes. He is best known for his illustrations
which appeared in numerous magazines and books on Dogs.
In addition to these prints we also feature on
our Web site a series of Sporting
Dog prints by Stokes dating to 1930.
Stokes lived near Carlisle for some years and
later near Deal in Kent.
