Excerpt from Our American Artists In our time there are many artists in Europe who have studied the forms and habits of animals, especially the horse and the dog. Many oi' the readers of this volume are doubtless familiar with the horses of Schreyer, the German painter, and Herring the Englishman, and the noble dogs and sheep and deer of Sir Edwin Landseer, who made the animals he painted seem so human that they excite our sympathy or mirth as if they were like ourselves.
