Signed painting in gouache on heavy printer's board, printer's annotations on verso; some wear to lower right corner with sl. loss to image & signature. Printers annotations on verso: 'The People of the Mist, page 310. "Nam hurled himself backwards off the point of rock bearing the treasure with him".' Originally illustrated by Arthur Layard in the 1894 first edition, the edition first illustrated by Cuneo was part of Newne's Sixpenny Novels, published in 1902. Both this and a later 1906 edition also illustrated by Cuneo were printed in 218 and 210 pages respectively. No reference can be found to an edition in over 310 pages illustrated by Cuneo. Born in San Francisco to an Italian family, Cyrus Cuneo, 1879-1916, was determined from an early age to be an artist. He travelled to Paris to study at Whistler's academy and from there moved to London where he soon found work. His reputation as an illustrator flourished and by the age of 30 he was chosen by The Illustrated London News to depict the 'epoch-making events' of the early nineteenth century: King Edward VII's funeral and the Coronation of George V. He joined and became chairman of the prestigious Langham Sketching Club of which Rackham and Munnings were members and preceded by the likes of Tenniel and Keene. A prolific illustrator of popular novels, Cuneo's burgeoning career was tragically cut short at the age of 36 when he died of blood poisoning, contracted by an accidental pin prick at a dance. His son, Terrence Cuneo, 1907-1996, was an English painter known for his railway and military scenes; following in his father's footsteps he was the official artist at Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation.
