Walter Emanuel (1869 - 1915) was a well-known author and satirist. After working as a solicitor for five years, he left legal practice to pursue a career in humour writing. His work was featured in humour magazines such as Punch, where he had a weekly column. He is known for his anthropomorphic dog characters. A Dog Day is his most famous work. Cecil Aldin was born in 1870 and began his working life as a magazine illustrator. He soon became famous for his sporting prints, posters, children' s books and pictures of old inns but he became world famous for his portrayals of dogs. It was said of him that he "captured the very soul of a dog". His original artworks are now highly prized by collectors and there are regular exhibitions of his work. A Dog Day has been his most enduring work.
