The Cat’s Paw

Landseer’s popularity in Victorian Britain was considerable. He was regarded as one of the foremost animal painters of his time, and reproductions of his works were commonly found in middle-class homes. Yet his appeal crossed class boundaries, for Landseer was quite popular with the British aristocracy as well, including Queen Victoria, who commissioned several portraits of her family from Landseer. Landseer was particularly associated with the Scottish Highlands, which provided the subjects (both human and animal) for many of his sporting pictures, including his early success The Hunting of Chevy Chase (1825-1826) and his majestic stag study Monarch of the Glen

The name Landseer is used for the variety of Newfoundland dog that, rather than being almost entirely black, features a mix of both black and white spots — the variety Landseer popularized in his paintings of water dogs rescuing children from drowning. Edwin Henry Landseer was rumored to be able to paint with both hands at the same time, for example, paint a horse’s head with the right and its tail with the left, simultaneously.
