Edward Lear, The Ramesseum (Thebes), 1854

There are a number of Edward Lear watercolours for sale at Christie’s, mostly in the “British Art on Paper” sale of 16 November. If you have £20,000-30,000 you can also get: GOULD, John (1804-1881). A Monograph of the Ramphastidae, or Family of Toucans. London: for the Author, [1833-]1834[-1835], to which Lear contributed ten plates. Or you can just enjoy the nice pictures.
