Biography
Nothing is known about this artist except his name, given in the inscription on the National Gallery's painting Bare Knuckles (1980.62.9) as GEO. A. HAYES. The artist was active c. 1870/1885, dates derived from the clothes worn by the figures in the painting.

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
