I have just received an email from The Naval & Military Press offering this book for sale.

Having never heard of him I did a bit of searching, this is just a small example of some beautiful caricatures.

What about this for a subject for Ellie's Miniatures, Ian?

John Everett Millais.

One of my favourite paintings, and I thought I had posyed it already about page three.
It is Lady Lever Art Gallery N.W.England on the Wirral.

A lovely choice.
The satin and silk is amazing close to.

It does not have many military subjects ....
but it would be nice to have it in scale

Not having seen this thread since before my great absence, I had forgotten about it. Going through it again I am amazed at how good it is. It shouldn't be a thread, but should be upgraded to a forum in it's own right (with Index) .
Moderators???????
Best wishes, Gary.
PS John Bauer and William Hogarth?.

What a good idea! How about 'Artists and Illustrators that Inspire Us'? 'Cos that's what this is really about - art that inspires us to improve, try new things, gives us new ideas.

All the best,
Dan

No need to trawl Richie, just go to page 13, post #242, where you'll find a complete (I hope) listing.
Louis Vallet, who wasn't listed, now is.
