I specialise in affordable original artworks - mainly traditional watercolours and oil paintings but I also have a range of contemporary artworks including limited edition lithographic prints. I also stock a limited selection of antiques and collectables, including treen, ceramics and glass. I have now opened a large showroom at Wallingford Arcade, in Wallingford between Reading and Oxford, but I also trade online. My website, www.artandstuffgallery.com has a gallery section with several mini-galleries where my items are displayed, including more contemporary items not shown on LoveAntiques.

Description
George Washington Bacon (1830-1922) has been described as a serial entrepreneur. In his youth he imported maps, but also tried writing medical booklets, selling gymnastic equipment and sewing machines! He went bankrupt. Later, he focused on publishing maps including the respected "The New Ordnance Atlas of the British Isles", first published in 1882 with later editions until 1912. This is his map of Oxfordshire, with colours delineating the different divisions of the county. Wallingford is shown in neighbouring Berkshire, which was the case until 1972.
