About the Item
London painter, George Armfield's original oil painting "Untitled -Terrier with Bowl" is an excellent example of this wonderful 19th century artist who is highly sought after for his dog paintings of Terriers. Original's by the renowned 19th century dog painting artist, George Armfield, are hard to find. The painting was beautifully restored in England in 2022. The original gold leaf frame is exquisite as well.
George Armfield was married 3 times and had as many as 7 children, (one record sites 12), some of whom were also artists. Poorer signed work often depicting terriers is relatively prolific, and these are perhaps by the hand of his children.
Today his work can be seen in various galleries in Great Britain including the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, Glasgow Art Gallery and Museum, and the Kennel Club. Then in America, in the collection of the American Kennel Club.

George Armfield
George Armfield was a British genre artist specializing in oil paintings of domesticated dogs. Armfeld professed a great love of animals, and his commissions of hounds and horses were in high demand in his lifetime. Preferring to paint hunting dogs over any other popular subject matter, Armfield’s broad, lively brush strokes captured the earthy colors of fur and grasses. Born George Armfield Smith in Wales in 1808, he was the son of portrait painter William Armfield Hobday, from whom he learned his craft. The precocious artist began his career at the young age of 16, when he exhibited his first painting at the Royal Academy: It was of Lion, a beloved Newfoundland dog. Today, Armfield’s work is included in the collections of the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool and the Glasgow Art Gallery in Glasgow, among many others. Armfield died in Clapham, England in August of 1893.
