Description

American wildlife artist Charles R. Knight (1874-1953) spent a lifetime creating some of the first paintings and sculptures of dinosaurs, mammoths, and cavemen that were both spectacularly beautiful and scientifically accurate.

For generations, his work has inspired scientists, artists, and filmmakers all over the world.

This richly illustrated celebration of Knight's artwork gathers together famous and never-before-seen paintings, sculptures, sketches, and murals.

In addition to a new biographical essay, it also features excerpts from Knight's extensive writings about extinct and modern animals.

Above all, it provides a refreshing new look at Knight's lifelong quest to depict the range of animal species, his struggles with failing eyesight, his desire for artistic independence, and his deep sense of kinship with Ice Age cave artists.Praise for Charles R.

Knight: "Knight's paintings continue to enchant viewers." -Los Angeles Times
