An evocative early 20th century oil on board portrait of an English Setter, dating to circa 1920. The artist captures the noble profile of the dog with sensitivity, highlighting its mottled coat, feathered ear, and attentive expression. The warm ochre and russet tones of the background contrast beautifully with the animal’s white and black markings, allowing the subject to stand out with quiet dignity.
The work is housed in a period carved and painted frame with gilded accents, which lends further character and presence. Measuring 19.75 inches wide, 2 inches deep, and 16.75 inches high overall, the piece is intimate in scale yet rich in atmosphere, making it ideal for a study, library, or sporting interior.
With its classic subject and circa 1920 execution, this painting reflects the enduring tradition of dog portraiture and will appeal to collectors of sporting art and animal paintings alike.
