I did a little research. E.F. Skinner seems to have been mainly an illustrator of history, with some excursions into animal illustration. This image apparently comes from Harmsworth's History of the World, a multi-volume book published in the first decade of the 20th century in the UK.

Some more of Skinner's work:

The E.F. stands for "Edward Frederick":
