John Strickland Goodall RBA RI (7 June 1908 – 2 June 1996) was a British author, watercolour painter and illustrator, best known for his wordless picture books such as The Adventures of Paddy Pork, although his output included more conventional pictures, and illustrations for a wide range of publications (including the Radio Times) and books by the “fictitious village schoolmistress Miss Read”. Goodall became one of England’s most beloved artists due to the subject matter of his works, the Victorian and Edwardian eras.

During the Second World War he worked as a camouflage artist, based in India. He had his first public exhibition of paintings in the Government School of Art in Calcutta in 1943. After the war he settled in Tisbury, Wiltshire where he shared an idyllic cottage with his wife. The house featured in many of his paintings. - From Wikipedia
