Charles Landseer (British, 1799-1879) oil on panel painting of a scene from Sir Walter Scott's 1825 Orientalist novel The Talisman, from the Waverley series, c. 1840-1860. Richard the Lionheart lies ill in his tent and several women, including his wife, Berengaria of Navarre, Queen Consort of England, and Lady Edith Plantagenet, attend to him. This painting is likely a study for a painting on canvas in the collection of the Sunderland Museum and Winter Gardens, Sunderland, England. Signed lower left and stamped BROWN HOLBORN en verso. Housed in a painted wood frame with nameplate. Sight: 13 1/2" H x 17 3/8" W. Framed: 22" H x 25 1/2" W. Note: The Talisman, one of Scottish author Sir Walter Scott's Waverley novels, focuses on the Third Crusade and the relationship between King Richard I of England, or Richard the Lionheart, and Saladin, Sultan of Egypt and Syria and founder of the Ayyubid dynasty. Biographical note: The son of artist John Landseer and brother of artists Edwin and Thomas Landseer, Charles Landseer specialized in history painting, scenes from literary works, and genre. He began his studies at the Royal Academy of Art, London, in 1816 and in 1825-26 accompanied the English ambassador Sir Charles Stuart on his diplomatic mission to Brazil. He became an Associate member of the Academy in 1837 and in 1845 was elected Royal Academician. He served on the Royal Academy Council in the office of Keeper from 1851-1873.
