Thomas Bewick with John Grundy (DVD)

A grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund helped provide a lively video on Thomas Bewick for the 250th birthday celebrations in 2003, hosted by local historian John Grundy and produced by Roger Burgess.

 In this fascinating 35 minute film John Grundy explores Bewick’s life and ideas, the beautiful Tyne Valley where he learnt to love nature and above all, his wonderful engravings.
