THE life and work of a renowned Stourport printer has gone on show at the town's library.

The exhibition on George Nicholson has been organised by Stourport Civic Society and follows the launch of a booklet written on him by Audrey Cooper in September.

Nicholson settled in the town in 1808 and there, until his death in 1825, produced a prolific number of works commissioning designs from famous artists and engravers.

The exhibition, which includes a small collection of his rare books, continues until Saturday, December 1.
