A well-executed genre scene by Frank Dadd of a gentleman in 18th century costume with a spaniel and Jack Russell terrier. The man, dressed in clergyman’s robes, is depicted standing by a window holding a bowl of food out for his dogs.
Frank Dadd was a genre, historical and military artist and illustrator born in Whitechapel, London on 28th March, 1851 to Robert and Catherine Dadd (née Carter). His father was a manager at a felt factory and the family income enabled Dadd to develop his artistic talent and study at the South Kensington School of Art. By 1871, he had entered the Royal Academy School, where he obtained a silver medal for his life drawing. He began exhibiting at the Royal Academy from 1876 and also at the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and the Institute of Painters in Oil. Much of his work was of genre and figurative subjects, which he later expanded to include historical and military.
As well as continuing to paint in watercolours and oils, he started working as an artist for the Illustrated London News in 1878, which helped supplement his income. Having established himself, he married Jessie Florence Eliza Hulbert on 1 June, 1880 at St Mary’s Church Lewisham. The couple spent the first years of married life living at 21 George Lane in Lewisham where their 3 children were born.
In 1884, Dadd was elected a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and in 1888 became a member of the Institute of Painters in Oil. From 1888, he became a regular contributor to The Graphic and gained popularity for his black and white or en grisaille drawings. He was later sent to South Africa where he spent time in the Transvaal and other places covering the Boer War.
By 1891, he had moved to Wilton House, Conduit Vale in Greenwich where he spent the next 2 decades. Towards the end of his life he moved to Teignmouth where he lived at West Lawn, Higher Brimley. He remained in Teignmouth until his death on 7 March, 1929. His paintings won him considerable fame during his lifetime and one of the most famous of his works ‘Gold Lace Has a Charm for the Fair’ was purchased for the nation by the Chantry Bequest in 1908 and now hangs in the Tate. Other examples of his work are also held by the Laing Art Gallery Laing Art Gallery, Russell-Cotes Art Gallery and Wellcome Collection.
Presentation: The work is housed in a new, English made gilt frame which is in excellent condition.
Condition: As with all of our original antique oil paintings, this work is offered in ready to hang gallery condition, having been professionally cleaned, restored and revarnished.

A lovely genre painting of a woman with a dog outside a country house by Sydney Kendrick. A young woman can be seen dressed for a wintry day in a green velvet cloak over a brown dress and holds a fur muffler in her hands. She is shown walking down the snow covered stone steps of a country house followed by a black and tan rough collie.
Sydney Percy Kendrick was born on 17 September, 1874. Little is known about his early life, however he is believed to have studied art in Paris. By the early 1900’s he was living in London where he set up a studio at 3D Warwick Avenue, Maida Vale known as Fulthorpe Studios.
He began exhibiting at the Royal Academy in 1903 and later at the New Society of Artists in Suffolk Street. Kendrick became known for his genre paintings featuring women and also painted portraits of well-known people including the Duke of Devonshire, Marquess of Lansdowne, Dame Sybil Thorndike, Cecil John Rhodes...
