About the Item

Lilian Cheviot (1876- c.1936) The sage signed 'L. Cheviot' (lower right) oil on canvas 12 x 10 in. (30.5 x 25.3 cm.) with frame 15 ¾ x 13 ¾ in. (40 x 35 cm.) Renowned for her sensitive and characterful canine portraits, Lilian Cheviot captures the alert intelligence and soulful gaze of a black dog in this finely observed composition. Painted against a warm, neutral ground that enhances the depth and texture of the dog’s dark coat, the work exemplifies Cheviot’s gift for portraying both breed and individuality. Her paintings were exhibited at the Royal Academy and widely reproduced in the Edwardian era, reflecting the era’s deep affection for canine companions. This portrait is a quietly powerful example of her distinctive style and technical control.
