Ralph Steadman is a prolific artist who in his 40 year career has produced thousands of groundbreaking and influential artworks.
Born in 1936, Ralph Steadman began his career as a cartoonist and through the years diversified into many fields of creativity. Artist, writer, sculptor, cartoonist and designer, he has illustrated such classics as Alice in Wonderland, Treasure Island and Animal Farm. His books include the studies of Sigmund Freud and Leonardo da Vinci, while with Hunter S. Thompson he collaborated on the birth of GONZO journalism with his classic illustrations for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
Ralph Steadman's paintings of distilleries were created primarily in the late 1980s and 1990s as part of a collaboration with Oddbins, a wine merchant, for their catalogues. This led to a 12-year partnership, during which Steadman traveled the world, including visiting distilleries in Scotland, and created numerous artworks, many of which were later featured in his books about wine and whisky.
