EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Edwin Landseer (1802-1873) was a renowned British painter and sculptor, best known for his detailed and expressive animal portraits. In this photograph, Landseer is seen at work on the lions that grace the base of the Nelson Monument in Trafalgar Square, London. Dated circa 1860, the image offers a rare glimpse into the creative process of one of the most celebrated artists of the Victorian era. The Nelson Monument, completed in 1813, stands as a tribute to Admiral Horatio Nelson, a British naval hero who played a crucial role in the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The monument's base features four large lions, sculpted by Landseer, which have become iconic symbols of London. In the photograph, Landseer is seen standing in front of one of the lions, intently studying its features and making adjustments with chisel and hammer in hand. His assistant, dressed in a white apron, holds a large piece of marble, ready to pass it to the artist. The scene is set against the backdrop of the bustling city, with passersby and horse-drawn carriages visible in the distance. Landseer's dedication to his craft is evident in this photograph, as he meticulously carves away at the marble to bring the lion to life. The artist's focus, combined with the intricate details of the lion's expression and posture, underscores the depth of his talent and the skillful artistry that went into creating these iconic sculptures. This photograph is a testament to the passion and dedication that defined Sir Edwin Landseer's illustrious career as a sculptor and painter.
