Frederick Richard Lee

A carte-de-visite portrait of the English artist Frederick Richard Lee (1798-1879).

Lee was a prolific artist, producing many oil paintings, both on canvas and on board. Some of his more notable paintings were done in collaboration with Thomas Sidney Cooper (between 1848 and 1856) and Sir Edwin Landseer, Lee painting the landscape and Cooper and Landseer adding the animals. Scottish scenes figured prominently as subjects for Lee, but he also travelled extensively elsewhere in Britain and the continent
