George Cumberland

Cumberland's ''The Conjugal Union of Cupid'', from ''Thoughts on Outline'' (1796, etched by [[William Blake]]) George Cumberland (27 November 1754 – 8 August 1848) was an English art collector, writer and poet. He was a lifelong friend and supporter of William Blake, and like him was an experimental printmaker. He was also an amateur watercolourist, and one of the earliest members of the Bristol School of artists. He made use of his wide circle of connections to help its other members, in particular assisting and influencing Edward Bird and Francis Danby. Provided by Wikipedia
