From Wikipedia:
Marguerite first trained as a harpist at the Royal Academy of Music but spent much of her spare time drawing animals. She went to the United States in 1910 on holiday with friends but stayed there.[4] She was not successful in advancing her musical career and focused her attention increasingly on her animal drawing, which she developed by frequent sketching trips to the Bronx Zoo.[5]
In 1921 she started producing etchings of dogs, for which she became well-known. She published Dogs (1930) and Dogs in the Field (1935) and produced many other works as book illustrations and commissions. She illustrated two books by Rudyard Kipling, "Lassie Come-Home" by Eric Knight, and many other children's books.
In 1924 she married George C. Cole, with whom she ran the Tobermory kennels near Bridgewater, Connecticut.

By Winslow Homer

AFTER - WINSLOW HOMER (1836-1910)
THANKSGIVING IN THE ARMY - After Dinner: the Wishbone, 1864
Original wood engraving as published by Harpers Weekly December 3, 1864, after a drawing by Winslow Homer. Image 9 3/4" x 14, Sheet 10 3.\/4 x 15 3/4" . Generally good condition, a small stain in the upper right margin.
Homer contributed drawings to Harper's Weekly from 1857 to 1875. They were converted to wood engravings by Harper's craftsman and published in Harper's Weekly. Although after his original drawings, they are now accepted as an important part of his body of work by museums and collectors. They were very large editions. As such, they occur often in the marketplace. Harper's published during the Civil War years as this was, were widely read and kept as people followed the war first hand and its aftermath over the years continuing today as both Homer and Civil War collectables
