Note du spécialiste

The present work is an illustration for a story by Robert W. Chambers, The girl Phillippa: A Strange Adventure in Love and War, chronicled in Nash's and Pall Mall Magazine, February to December 1916. Craig studied at the Lambeth School of Art and the Royal Academy Schools. Initially an illustrator for magazines such as the American publication Scribner's and for The Graphic, he was also much in demand as a book illustrator for publications such as Rewards and Fairies by Rudyard Kipling (1910).
