Richard Ansdell
Royal Academician
(1815 – 1885)
“Most successful but lesser known Victorian animal and sporting artist. One of contrasts in his personal life and his paintings: depicting a child’s tenderness with her pet lamb; the harshness of Scottish mountain life; vibrant colours of a Spanish fiesta; starkly political statements and the odd mass portrait . . .”
