Description:
Edinburgh, 1831. Oil paint on millboard, R. Davy art supply company label and Christie's sticker on verso. Size: (18 3/4 x 11 3/5 inches). Provenance: Collection of Lucy Audubon Williams. An original ornithological oil painting from the Audubon/Kidd collaboration. One of the rare Kidd paintings stemming from his collaboration with Audubon. In 1827, while in Edinburgh supervising the engraving of the first part of his double-elephant folio The Birds of America, Audubon met a young landscape artist named Kidd, whom Audubon's engraver Lizars had employed to finish the sky in the background behind one of Audubon's birds. Audubon would write in his journal on March 1, 1827, of Kidd: "I admired him for his talents at so early a period of his life, he being only nineteen. What would I have been now if equally gifted by nature at that age?" In the winter of 1831, Audubon would commission Kidd to copy some of his watercolors in oil and paint in the backgrounds, with the intention of holding an exhibition of…

Description:
London, 1794. Colour-Printed mezzotint. Title space has rocker work on it. In good condition with the exception of being trimmed on the plate mark on the lower margin. Laid onto supportive backing sheet. Surface soiling in margins. Image size: 18 x 13 9/16 inches. A richly-coloured, sharp impression of Morland's pleasant image of very old and very young people. George Morland was one of the most successful genre painters of his time, creating, during his industrious career, some of England's most cherished paintings. At an early age Morland displayed his artistic genius, he learned to paint at three and exhibited his first work at the Royal Academy at the mere age of ten. He was a prodigious painter, producing more than 4000 paintings during the entirety of his career, and sometimes painting two or three works in a day. His beautiful idealistic scenes were a favorite source of inspiration for contemporary engravers, and as many as 250 separate engravings were done of his paintings during his…
