Verlag: Art Journal

Beschreibung

The print titled "THE RESTING PLACE OF THE DEER" is a steel engraving created in 1879, based on a work by the renowned French artist Rosa Bonheur. The engraving was executed by C.G. Lewis and depicts a tranquil forest scene featuring a group of deer at rest. The foreground showcases three deer lying down, with one standing alertly, all nestled among the ferns and foliage of a woodland setting. The background includes dense trees and underbrush, creating a sense of depth and natural habitat. The print includes the inscription "THE RESTING PLACE OF THE DEER" at the bottom center, with "FROM THE PICTURE IN THE COLLECTION OF GEO. RODOSCH Esq. SUMMERVILLE, BRADFORD" noted below it. On the left side, "Mme ROSA BONHEUR PINXt" is inscribed, acknowledging the original artist, and on the right side, "C.G. LEWIS SCULPs" credits the engraver. Rosa Bonheur, celebrated for her realistic and detailed animal paintings, was one of the most famous female artists of the 19th century, known for her meticulous observation of animals in their natural environments. This engraving captures her signature style and subject matter, highlighting the peaceful and naturalistic portrayal of wildlife.
