August 1937 27. Juli 2008) war ein autodidaktischer kanadischer Naturkünstler. Lansdownes kreativer Prozess beinhaltete die Beobachtung am Leben und anhand von konservierten Exemplaren. Seine detaillierten Aquarelle von Vögeln wurden häufig mit der Arbeit von John James Audubon verglichen sie zeigen oft eine bestimmte Art vor einem weitgehend weißen Hintergrund , aber seine Motive zeigen tendenziell eine größere lebensechte Qualität und natürlichere Körperhaltungen als die von Audubon. Seine Arbeiten befinden sich in öffentlichen Sammlungen wie dem Royal Ontario Museum , dem Montreal Museum of Fine Arts , der Beaverbrook Art Gallery , der Art Gallery of Greater Victoria und in der Sammlung der Prinzessin Royal und des Herzogs von Edinburgh. Seine Arbeit wurde Mitgliedern der britischen Königsfamilie von der kanadischen Regierung präsentiert. 1976 wurde Lansdowne zum Officer of the Order of Canada ernannt.1995 wurde ihm der Order of British Columbia verliehen . 1974 wurde er zum Mitglied der Royal Canadian Academy of Arts gewählt . 0 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 5000 OPappband, mit goldgeprägten Rückentitel, SU.

Soft cover. Zustand: Good. Printed stitched foolscap wraps, 6, (1)pp. Good, tanned, with closed tears and minor loss. The main text is the "Report by Mr Last respecting the Working of the Decree for the Abolition of the Status of Slavery during the Year 1903", with a brief covering note by Resident John Houston Sinclair to the Marquess of Lansdowne (Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs). Last explains why the number of slaves presenting themselves for manumission is now very small, attributing it to the advantages and rights that come with slavery, the honour of being attached to a particular House, etc, describes their conditions, and predicts that slaves freed in future will be those freed by the owners out of a sense of religious duty. Tables show monthly count of slaves freed during 1903 distinguishing male / female, tribal origins, preference for town or country life after freedom, birthplace, and monthly totals of slaves freed during 1897-1903, showing the decline. Also included is an extract from Vice-Consul O'Sullivan Beare's report stating "the slavery question may be said to be at an end in Pemba", and a reply from the Foreign Office to Consul-General Basil Cave expressing Lansdowne's satisfaction with progress.
