Edwin Longsden Long, RA

In his London heyday, Long's work adorned the central position at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition as well as being a permanent feature of the Bond Street galleries in London. Edwin Longsden Long RA is the first work to catalogue Long's prolific output and to give an account of his life and of the context within which he worked. Essays by Simon Olding and Juliet Kinchin focus respectively on The Russell-Cotes Art Gallery and Museum's prominent collection of Long's work, and on his London studio houses.
