Abstract
This chapter provides illustrations of dinosaurs by different artists; the paintings and sculptures illustrated are only a fraction of the Lazendorf collection. The drawings, paintings, and sculptures in this chapter invite viewers to step back in time and experience the world and several of its most celebrated inhabitants as they once were. The artwork in this volume uses balance, composition, perspective, and color in concert with factual information to create riveting images of the past that capture the interest and imagination of a very wide audience. This art represents a new level of excellence and originality. Throughout this chapter, an effort has been made to provide a scientific context for the sculptures and drawings. The chapter highlights the artists and scientists, who worked together to generate glimpses of dinosaurs in life, with their brief biographical information.
