Send some poems to a friend - the love thought that counts! Poems for the People - Poems by the People Edward Lear Edward Lear was born in Holloway, London. He father was a stockbroker and he was brought up largely by his sister Ann. He spent his early years first as a draughtsman for the Zoological Society, then as an artist for the British Museum. In 1832 he was employed by the Earl of Derby to make coloured drawings of the rare birds and animals in the menagerie at Knowsley Hall. The Earl also allowed Lear the means to travel widely. He published accounts of his trips to Italy (1846), Albania and Illyria (1851), Calabria (1852), and Corsica (1870). He also visited the Holy Land and Greece. He is chiefly remembered for his nonsense poetry, the first volume of which was written for his patron's grandchildren in 1846 and was simply entitled A Book of Nonsense. It contained Lear's favourite poetic format, the limerick, and was illustrated throughout. His poetry was henceforth marked by an air of ludicrous fantasy, as well as a unique inventiveness. A deep sense of sadness can also be traced in his nonsense verse. This melancholy was a reflection of the life of the writer, who, despite the support of friends such as Tennyson's wife Emily, suffered from depression and loneliness.

Contact Edward Lear Edward Lear was born in London, the twentieth child of a stockbroker. Although the family was initially wealthy, his father went bankrupt when he was three, and the family never regained its former wealth. When his father retired, Edward was cared for by his sister Anne. From the age of fourteen they shared rented rooms and she encouraged his natural talent for drawing and painting, and despite the fact that he had never received any formal artistic training, his work became well known.From the age of sixteen he was commissioned to produce illustrations of various kinds. Lears subjects included birds and landscapes. His chief work was small water-colours, thousands of which survive today. Edward Lear is mostly remembered not for his considerable talent as an artist but for his Nonsense Rhymes. He is credited with inventing the Limerick, which he wrote to amuse the children of his wealthy clients. As well as the Limericks he wrote other nonsense rhymes such as " The Owl and The Pussycat" and " The Jumblies" .

The Jumblies Posted by MWK comments (2) Category: Edward Lear I They went to sea in a Sieve, they did, In a Sieve they went to sea: In spite of all their friends could say, In a Sieve they went to sea! And when the Sieve turned round and round, Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live; Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve. II They sailed away in a Sieve, they did, In a Sieve they sailed so fast, With only a beautiful pea-green veil Tied with a riband by way of a sail, To a small tobacco-pipe mast; And every one said, who saw them go, For the sky is dark, and the voyage is long, Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live; Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve. III The water it soon came in, it did, The water it soon came in; So to keep them dry, they wrapped their feet In a pinky paper all folded neat, And they fastened it down with a pin.

CHICAGO Wrigley Building 410 N. Michigan Ave. Chicago, Illinois 60611 CHARLESTON The Audubon Gallery 177 King Street. Charleston, South Carolina 29401 THE N ATURAL H ISTORY A RT G ALLERY Edward Lear From Gould's Birds of Europe Image Gallery Price List One of the greatest ornithological artists of his era, the multi-talented Edward Lear, (1812-1888) was a self taught naturalist and painter who later became famous as a writer of nonsense and limericks. Lear's exacting and masterly skill as an artist was employed by many major publishers of nineteenth century English ornithologies and natural histories. Lear's work is further distinguished by the fact that he was the first bird artist to draw from living examples, capturing not only the precise details of the birds he painted, but also the individual bird's unique character traits. The plates Lear contributed to John Gould's Bird's of Europe are amoung the finest of that work. These rare, beautifully hand-colored plates are signed by Lear in the lithographic stone. Folio size, 21.5 x 14.5 inches.
