New. 0906290953. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-Flawless copy, brand new, pristine, never opened--192 pages, Description: " More than 100 drawings and paintings reproduced in color, many for the first time; written by Richard Ormond, the leading authority on Sir Edwin Landseer. Sir Edwin Landseer RA was the foremost animal painter of his day and Queen Victoria's favourite, who became well-known to the public for the portrait of a majestic stag, 'The Monarch of the Glen', and his bronze lions at the foot of Nelson's column in Trafalgar Square, London. But another more private side to Landseer's creative genius which deserves greater recognition is revealed in his 'off-duty' drawings in pen and wash done when he stayed in the homes of his aristocratic patrons or as a member of their group of family and friends on extended holidays in the Highlands of Scotland where he took part in their pastimes and sporting activities. The patronage and friendship of the Russell family was of central importance to the life and career of the young Edwin Landseer, and Francis Russell, 6th Duke of Bedford and his second wife, Georgiana, several years younger than her husband and a warm-hearted and exuberant character, drew him into their family circle where his gift for intimacy and humour, as a noted mimic and raconteur, flourished in their company. It was here and with the Duke and Duchess of Abercorn, the Duchess of Bedford's son-in-law and daughter, that Landseer made his observant and witty drawings which capture, in a few pen strokes and sometimes a wash of color, the personalities he met."--with a bonus offer--
