Informal sketches drawn from royal and other collections set these prints apart. They come from The works of Sir Edwin Landseer, published by Virtue and Company in London in 1880 with a history of the artist's life by W. Cosmo Monkhouse. Dogs and deer, horses, cattle and domestic scenes with children show the subjects that made Landseer famous, and Highland harvesting and mountain streams tie his animals to the Scottish landscape. Views in Belgium, Germany and Switzerland reflect his travels, while Windsor material connects the selection with the royal sources named in the book.
