"Jilted," Briton Rivière, 1887.
Rivière (1840-1920) was a British painter and illustrator known mostly for his paintings of animals. He started doing academic historical paintings, but later moved on to specialize in animals, as he simply enjoyed doing it more.
In an interview with a children's magazine, he spoke of how he spent enormous amounts of time at the London zoo, sketching the animals, and also working in dissection rooms to study their anatomy and musculature. Early in his career, he also worked as an illustrator for the humor magazine Punch.
From the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
