His works, such as "King Charles Spaniels (The Cavaliers Pets)" from 1845, showcase his ability to bring out the charm and character of these beloved pets. In "Man Proposes, God Disposes" created in 1864, Landseer depicts the unpredictable nature of life and how our plans can be easily overturned by higher forces. "The Sick Monkey, " painted in 1875, reveals Landseer's skill in portraying animals' vulnerability and evoking empathy from viewers. Another notable work is "A Midsummer Night's Dream (Shakespeare, Act 4, Scene 1), " completed in November 1857. This painting demonstrates Landseer's versatility as an artist by successfully translating Shakespearean literature into visual art. Landseer also had the privilege to paint Queen Victoria at Osborne House in 1865. This portrait captures her majesty's regal presence while showcasing Landseer's attention to detail and mastery of portraiture techniques. In "Saved. " created around 1856, we witness Landseer's ability to depict dramatic rescue scenes with intensity and emotion that tug at our heartstrings. The painting titled "The Change" from 1823 showcases his early career exploration into narrative storytelling through art. His piece entitled "Head of a Roebuck and Two Ptarmigan" circa 1830 exemplifies his keen observation skills when it comes to wildlife subjects. Similarly, "The Deer Pass" painted around c. 1852 displays his expertise in capturing the gracefulness of deer amidst their natural habitat. One cannot overlook Landseer's fascination with mythological themes as seen in "A Portrait of Neptune" from1824 where he portrays this powerful deity with great reverence.
