Description

Allen W. Seaby's life has been described as 'a classic tale of Victorian self-improvement.' But there is more to the tale than just upward mobility. A.W. Seaby was a pioneering, innovative and inspirational man who rose to becoming a prominent print-maker, teacher, author and illustrator. Best-known for his colour woodcut printing using traditional Japanese methods, and as a prominent wildlife artist, the story of Seaby's many accomplishments is recounted by his grandson, who inherited Seaby's love of birds and became internationally renowned in his own right, Robert Gillmor.
