Charles John Tomkins (1847 - c.1894) was a 19th<br />
century engraver whose work was declared to the<br />
Printsellers' Association.<br />
George Morland (1763-1804) was a painter <strong>of</strong><br />
landscapes and sentimental rustic scenes. Son <strong>of</strong> the<br />
painter, Henry Robert Morland, to whom he was<br />
apprenticed in 1777, George Morland was precocious,<br />
gifted and dissolute, spending much <strong>of</strong> his later career<br />
facing a debtor's prison, despite the popularity <strong>of</strong> his<br />
work.<br />
