Bernard de Claviere
Two Elegant White Borzoi Dogs Against a Mysterious Red, Burnt Umber Landscape

1985

About the Item

Enhance your collection with the internationally renowned Bernard de Claviere's captivating dog painting, "Two Borzois." This romantic dog painting beautifully showcases two elegant Borzois in silky white coats which glow against a misty, moody red and burnt umber landscape. Their expressive eyes twinkle with emotion, as if awaiting their owner's return. This evocative piece not only celebrates the deep bond between dogs and their owners but also carries a poignant sentiment—perhaps reflecting the late artist’s own reunion with his beloved Borzois. A must-have for collectors of fine dog paintings, this painting embodies both elegance and heartfelt emotion. The painting is in a frame that was made by the artist. The framed dimensions are 37 1/2" h x 45 1/2"w. Called by the Wall Street Journal "one of the leading animaliers of this century", the late Count Bernard de Claviere d'Hust became familiar with his subject, the dog, long before he began to paint them. Born in Lyon, France, in 1934, the Count raised and trained Borzois while enjoying many a hunt with them. He began painting after studying with such masters as the well known Versailles art restorer, Etienne Polet, and the renowned animal painter, Count Xavier de Poret. Influenced greatly by Velasquez, Poussin, Rembrandt, Oudry and Thomas Stubbs as well as the Italian Renaissance painters, the Count describes himself as a painter who "sees the modern from a classical perspective."
