Abstract Portrait of a Boy with his Dog, circa 1940

About the Item

Outstanding abstract portrait of a boy with his dog, circa 1940 This is truly an extraordinary painting done by a very talented artist. A bit of old fashioned detective work by the new owner end may turn up a listed artist! Though undated, we believe this is circa 1940, or earlier. The painting may bear a signature in the lower right corner (illegible - see images). Canvas dimensions 32" wide x 40.5" high. The frame measures 37" wide x 45.5" high. The canvas has been repaired at some point during it's long life. This can only be seen from the back and does not affect the image. This is one of the finest mid modern paintings in our collection. We think you'll agree.

  • Antique Limoges Enamel Portrait of Woman and Lap Dog
    Located in London, GB
    The beautiful enamel plaque was crafted in Limoges, a town in northern France. Limoges has long been associated with the production of high quality enamel wares. While to begin with, in the 12th Century, the town was famous for its applied enamel pieces, religious icons, for example, which were crafted in metal with champlevé enamel ornament, Limoges later, in the 15th century, began to paint onto enamel, creating plaques, plates and ewers, which were both religious and secular in character. These local techniques were revived in the mid-19th century, when items like this enamel portrait painting were produced. This enamel portrait is a half-length depiction of a young woman. While her body is faced slightly to the side, she turns her head to look out directly at the viewer. The woman wears a fine, light pink gown...
