Chevy by Edwin Henry Landseer



Edwin Henry Landseer was an English artist who was well known for his paintings of animals—particularly horses, dogs and stags—and best known for his lion sculptures in London’s Trafalgar Square. Landseer was a child prodigy, who studied under his father John Landseer, an engraver, and Benjamin Robert Haydon, the well-known and controversial history painter who encouraged young Landseer to perform dissections in order to fully understand animal musculature and skeletal structure. Chevy can be seen in the DIA’s collection of European Paintings.


This cache is placed with permission in Orion Oaks County Park. The park covers over 927 acres including a 90 acre fishing lake. There are over 10 miles of hiking and biking trails including a 5 mile Achievement Trail. The dog park has 14 fenced areas including lake access, woods, and fields for the dogs to enjoy.

Park hours are 1/2 hour before sunrise to 1/2 hour after sunset, unless otherwise posted at the entrance. A vehicle permit is required. Parking and park access is available from Baldwin Road, Clarkston Road, and two areas on Joslyn Road.
