Bücher der Reihe Autobiographical Recollections 2 Volume Set

The Royal Academician Charles Leslie (1794-1859) also wrote biographies of fellow painters. This lively and self-deprecating two-volume work of autobiography and letters was edited in 1860 by the journalist and dramatist Tom Taylor (1817-80). Volume 1 is prefaced by an introductory essay on Leslie and his art.
