Hewson & Forster: ‘the home of art in Sheffield’

In reply to Dirk De Nul’s enquiry about Hewson & Forster (Letters, ATG No 2606), Robert John Forster (1872-1928) moved from Newcastle to Sheffield in 1909 and joined William Hewson (b. c.1871) in the foundation of Hewson & Forster at 16 (they soon expanded into number 18 as well) Church Street, Sheffield.
