Cuthbert Bede

Edward Bradley was born in 1827 and studied at Durham. Having become a clergyman in country parishes, in Huntingdonshire, then Rutland and finally Lincolnshire, he wrote and drew under a name borrowed from the two patron saints of the town where he had studied, and illustrated his own books. He was also one of the first to draw a humorous text from the newborn art of photography, which he practised himself. He died in 1889 at Lenton, near Grantham.
