Historia
Melton Prior was an English artist and war correspondence for the Illustrated London News from the early 1870s until 1904. Prior was one of the leading illustrators of late Victorian Britain, noted for his ability to quickly sketch scenes. His pencil sketches were sent back to London where they were re-drawn by studio artists and engraved on wood-blocks for printing in the Saturday issues of the Illustrated London News. In addition to covering conflicts around the world, he also travelled on a number of Royal tours including accompanying the Prince of Wales to Canada in 1901
