"Born in England in 1867, Herbert Cole is one of the many journeyman artists who answered the call of the illustrated magazines of the late 19th century. He was a prolific artist about whom little is known. He worked in British magazines in the 1890's. Some of his earliest book illustration was for a John Lane edition of Gulliver's Travels in 1900." - quote source
