His first major contribution, Etchings and Etchers, was published in 1868 and caused many fine artists to favor the etching needle over the paint brush. As well, the now famous first edition of this book included original etchings by Whistler, Haden, Palmer, Cope and old masters such as Waterloo.In 1885 Hamerton again sought contributions from leading contemporary etchers. The first edition of Landscape (from which this original etching comes) contained work by Stephen Parrish, Joseph Pennell, Edmond Yon, Colin Hunter, E. P. Brandard, Heywood Hardy, Alfred Dawson and Maxime Lalanne.Heywood Hardy was a British artist, in particular an animal painter and painter of horse riding scenes. He also painted landscapes and portraits, especially equestrian portraits.Condition: A very good clean sheet - no mount marks - ideal for mounting in portfolio or frame - see my photos
