More about the artist Edward Julius Detmold (1883–1957)
Edward Julius was a watercolourist, illustrator and printmaker specialising in natural history subjects and the creation of his own fantastic worlds. Like his twin brother Charles Maurice he was educated privately and studied creatures in the zoo. He worked with him until Charles Maurice’s death in 1908. Edward Julius settled in Montgomeryshire by which time he had established a reputation as a book illustrator working with great exactitude. The Fables of Aesop, 1909 and Maurice Maeterlinck’s The Life of the Bee, 1911 were notable examples. For a few months in 1905 the brothers were associates of RE but resigned. Edward Julius was a prolific exhibitor at Fine Art Society, Brook Street Art Gallery, Arlington and Baillie Galleries, NEAC, RA, RI and elsewhere.
