Leggi
Artist George W. Adamson (1913-2005) was an illustrator, author and cartoonist, whose work appeared regularly in magazines and newspapers, including Punch, the Spectator, the Daily Telegraph and Private Eye. Born in New York, he moved to England as a boy, studying art and training as a teacher. He taught engraving and illustration at Exeter School of Art (1946-1953), and, after a brief period working for a London based design group, became a freelance artist, making Devon his home.
