E. H. New, an acclaimed English illustrator born in the late 19th century, is noted for his distinct line drawings of English towns and architecture. New's work predominantly featured in the early 20th-century, encapsulating the charm and character of rural and urban English landscapes. His book 'Evesham' is a testament to his artistic vision, where he intricately captured the essence of Evesham, a market town in Worcestershire known for its rich history and scenic beauty. Though not as widely known as some contemporaries, E. H. New carved a niche for himself with his detailed pen-and-ink illustrations that reflected a strong Arts and Crafts influence in their design and execution. His illustrations were not just works of art but also served as historical documents, recording with great care the architectural details of many locations at a time when the pace of change was accelerating with modernity.
