| Summary | "Landseer" by Estelle M. Hurll is a collection of artistic interpretations paired with a biographical insight into the works of Sir Edwin Landseer, a renowned English painter, written during the early 20th century. The book compiles fifteen pictures of Landseer's paintings along with a portrait of the artist, providing an analysis of his artistic style and thematic focus, particularly on animal subjects. The content is likely aimed at art enthusiasts and those interested in the evolution of 19th-century art. The collection includes detailed descriptions and interpretations of significant works, such as "The Monarch of the Glen" and "A Distinguished Member of the Humane Society," showcasing Landseer’s ability to encapsulate the essence of animals in both humorous and poignant moments. Each piece is accompanied by an examination of the context in which it was painted, the emotional themes it conveys, and the technical skill evident in Landseer's portrayal of various creatures. Through this exploration, the book not only highlights Landseer's status as a popular artist of his era but also emphasizes the deep mutual understanding between humans and animals reflected in his art.
