Artist: Charles Livingston Bull(1874- 1932) was the premier wildlife artist of his time in America, perhaps the best of his kind in the world.

He also took evening drawing classes at the Mechanic's Institute in his home town of Rochester, and there he met Harvey Ellis. With him and several other artists, he formed the Rochester Arts & Crafts Society, one of the first groups in the United States to focus on the Arts and Crafts movement. Eventually he earned the position
