Tra il disegno (1825) e il dipinto (1832) trascorsero sette anni.

La moda cambiò e Louis-Léopold Boilly, attento osservatore della società parigina, se ne accorse.

Il pittore decise così di modificare l’abito della figura femminile di spalle.

The copy of Edward Lear’s “Parrots” (1832) is now looking especially spruce, with a brand new box and binding (replacing an unlovely buckram binding from the early 60s). The new marbled papers are particularly nice. Thank you for making it possible.

Despite hearing the song dozens of times I never thought to check out Lear’s “visages and forms of parrots and cockatoos”.

Between the ages of 18-20 he drew 42 parrots, including some Australian cockatoos. Published 1832.

Tricolour-crested (now Major Mitchell’s) cockatoo.

It was an accident of fate that Charles became a novelist rather than an actor. Famously, he missed an 1832 Covent Garden audition due to a head cold. But, over the years, his love of inspired a few plays of his own and led him to act on multiple occasions

"Ivanhoé", ce roman lié à jamais à Walter Scott n'évoque presque plus rien. Il a été pourtant un succès mondial.

L'auteur est sorti de son régionalisme écossais pour donner des lettres de noblesse à un monde médiéval quelque peu réarrangé.

W. Scott meurt le 21 septembre 1832.
