Like most magazine illustrators of the early to mid 20th century, little is known about George Horace Davis.

From a site dedicated to The Illustrated London News (ILN), we learn that he spent 40 years contributing to that publication, producing up to 2,500 pages of illustrations.

Born in Kensington in 1881, Davis was first published in ILN on July 29, 1923.  He learned art at Ealing School of Art and served with the RFC during WWI.

Davis died December 7, 1963
