Rural Life, Described and Illustrated in the Management of Horses, Dogs, Cattle, Sheep, Pigs, Poultry, &C.

London, London Printing and Publishing Company Limited, c1870. Cloth. A lavishly illustrated work on the management of various farm animals in rural England, written by John Sherer, illustrated by Edwin and Thomas Landseer. Illustrations include three folding plates.

Illustrated throughout by Edwin Landseer, and engraved by Thomas Landseer. Edwin is best known for his paintings of animals, as well as for his impressive lion sculptures in Trafalgar Square. His work was popular in Victorian Britain, and was the most highly regarded animal painter of his time. His brother, Thomas, often worked with him by engraving his paintings, which meant that their work could be widely used as illustrations in books. Thomas studied painting under Charles and William Bewick, beginning to practice etching when he was fourteen. Written by John Sherer. Undated, dated from Copac from copies held at Edinburgh University, and London School of Economics. Collated, complete. In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, generally smart. Tidemarking and discolouration to the boards. A little bumping to the head and tail of the spines and to the extremities. The odd spot to the fore edge. Front hinge of Volume V is starting but firm.
