Lefevre James Cranstone: His Life and Art Book

Nineteenth-century artist Lefevre James Cranstone recorded the life and landscape of three continents. For the first time, Cranstone's life and work in England, America and Australia are assembled into one volume. In Donald L. Smith's book, we quickly discover a gifted artist whose work deserves world recognition. Cranstone's watercolors, oils, crayon, pen and ink, lithographs, and engravings bring his subjects to vivid life and demonstrate his versatility with diverse media. Few painters of his time matched the immaculate detail of his sketches.
