The Web Gallery of Landseer
Art
The Web Gallery of Landseer Art is an initiative of
Landseerinternational (Copyright © 2012)
and a searchable database of
worldwide paintings and sculptures about the Landseer or if you want
the white-black Newfoundland dog, currently containing over ........
reproductions. The collection has some of the characteristics of a
virtual museum. At the same time the collection serves the
‘visitors' need for a site with various information on art about the
Landseer. Picture commentaries, artist biographies and literature
works describing the history/origins of Newfoundlands or otherwise
relating real-life Newfoundland exploits, will be available in
future.
The Web Gallery of Landseer Art is intended to be a free resource
for all Landseer fanats. It is a private initiative not related to
any museums or art institutions, and not supported financially by
any body. However, we do more than our best, using hereby authentic
literature and advice from experianted people, to ensure the quality
and authenticity of the content.
We are convinced that such a collection of digital reproductions,
containing a balanced mixture of interlinked visual and textual
information, can serve multiple purposes. On one hand it can simply
be a source of artistic enjoyment; a convenient alternative to
visiting a distant museum, or an incentive to do just that. On the
other hand, it can serve as a tool for public education about our
beloved Landseer breed.
Enjoy your visit !
