Collection: Edwin Henry Landseer

Edwin Henry Landseer (1802-1873) was an English painter and sculptor who was known for his depictions of animals, particularly dogs and horses. Landseer's works were characterized by their naturalistic style and their ability to capture the character and personality of his subjects. He was particularly skilled at capturing the movement and energy of animals, and his works were highly regarded for their technical mastery and emotional depth. Landseer was a prominent figure in the Victorian era and was known for his association with the royal family, who were avid collectors of his works. Today, Landseer's works are celebrated for their beauty and their contribution to the development of animal painting in the 19th century. Some of his most famous works include "The Monarch of the Glen" and "A Distinguished Member of the Humane Society."
