Roger Henry Animal Paintings
b. 1965
Roger Henry (born 1965)
Roger Henry lives in Los Angeles and travels the world for his clients. As a serious fine artist, Henry likes to take as much time as possible getting to know his subjects and explore the settings and effect of light throughout the day. Thus it is not surprising that his clientele include luminaries in Los Angeles and collectors in Europe, South America, Australia and Hong Kong.
Born and raised in a small town in Kansas, Henry attended the University of Kansas on an art scholarship. He received an honors award in Art History; a special mention at the International Design Conference in Aspen, Colorado, in 1986; and a scholarship to study abroad in France in 1987. He graduated in 1988. Henry began his career on the West Coast as an Art Director for film and TV. His fascination with people and his love for dogs led him to begin his journey into portraiture in 1992. Henry finds the boundaries of art to be “as limitless as the colors in a Kansas sunset.”
Henry’s paintings amaze with his realistic and vibrant handling of his subjects. His animals as well as humans have an intense quality. Hair, leaves and fabric come to life with his brushstrokes and his use of color and illumination. His earlier works were influenced by the Ash Can School; he often tells a story with his paintings. In an early work, a dog is sitting on his master’s bed, sad that his owner has packed a suitcase; in another canine family portrait an alpha and omega dog are sitting one on top of the other, very content with their arrangement. One of his original clients, Paige Powell, a curator for Andy Warhol and editor for Interview Magazine, commissioned Henry to paint her dog, Sherlock, in bed reading Trollope. More recently Henry did a series of paintings of Dina, an Australian Kelpie mix, standing in the desert documenting the passing hours with her shadow on the sand.

Antique Dog Painting "Collies in Horse Stable with Saddle and Blanket"
Auguste Vimar (French 1851-1916)
Circa 1900
21 x 17 1/2 (29 x 25 1/2 frame) inches
An excellent depiction of collies in the barn awaiting their master. The color and textures are very evocative of an actual stable right down to the hay scattered about. With its original frame, this is quite the statement piece.
Auguste Vimar was a French painter, sculptor, designer and illustrator though he is best known for his talents as an illustrator. He illustrated great classics like La Fontaine's Fables or books by his friends, such as L'Arche de Noé by Paul Guigou...

Antique oil painting, Boy Fleaing a Dog, Gerard ter Borch, Dutch golden age

Gerard ter Borch (II) (1617-1681), copy after, around 1700
'Boy Fleas a Dog'
Oil on canvas
Professionally restored (cleaned and relined)
In modern frame in 17th century style
Dimensions excl. frame: 33 x 27,5 cm.

Depcited is a boy busy fleaing a dog. The boy sits on a chair with the dog on his lap. On a table on the right there is a book and a pen. On a wooden bench lies the boy's hat.
What is unique about this painting by Ter Borch, is the relationship that is depicted between human and animal. Mostly animals like dogs where depicted as an attribute in paintings in the 17th century, and sometimes used to symbolize certain character traits. This boy is lovingly caring for his dog, which he is giving his full attention.
Another interesting detail is that Ter Borch's brother Moses, was probably the model for this painting. Ter borch often used family members as models for his paintings. Moses was also a very talented painter and draughtsman.
Several copies of this work by Ter Borch are known. One of these copies is in the collection of the Dutch Rijksmuseum (Image included in the image gallery (last image)).
The original painting is in the collection of the Alte Pinakothek museum in Munich, Germany.
