Excerpt from Landseer a Collection of Fifteen Pictures and a Portrait of the PainterThe wide popularity of Landseer has been chiefly due to the circulation of engravings after his works. This little book is, so far as I know, the first attempt to bring together a collection of his pictures made in the modern process of half tone, from photographs direct from the original paintings. It is hoped that they may give a fairly good idea of the range and character of his art.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
