No.65/66 Regency Square: Here Brighton Corporation has placed a slate roundel honouring SIR EDWIN LANDSEER (1802-1873). If you peer at the plaque you will see that he is rather disparagingly described as a Victorian painter of animals, quite ignoring the fact that he designed the lions at the foot of NelsonÕs Column in Trafalgar Square.
