 | A Steam Tug Demanding Fish
Pen and ink drawing by Joseph Richard Bagshawe, 5"x8", signed with initials and inscribed in pencil 'A Steam Tug Demanding Fish p. 27.' Illustrated in 'Yachting and Boating Monthly' August 1909.
One of five pen and ink studies from Bagshawe's sketch books, all drawn as illustrations for either The Field or Yachting and Boating Monthly in 1909 and reproduced in His nephew, Gerald Wilfred Bagshawe's 1933 book, The Wooden Ships of Whitby. It was Gerald Bashawe whom I believe to be the first person to use the phrase 'Staithes Group' to describe these artists. All the drawings are priced at
