Original 19th-Century oil painting on canvas of an English hound hunting dog.  This beautiful portrait depicts a majestic English sporting dog in a box. The talented artist has masterfully executed the work with especially fine detail to the dog's head and coat. It is a fine example of English School painting and was probably a commission by the dog's owner. The attention to detail is excellent. Unsigned, this work needs additional research to discover this superb artist. Displayed in what appears to be the original giltwood frame.

Dimensions: 14.75" Length x 2" Width x 29.75" Height, Sight: 11" W x 26" H.

Condition is very good, a few small marks consistent with age, ready to hang.

Art has long been regarded as a strong and safe investment. Ellen Kelleher, a personal finance reporter for The Financial Times wrote an article recommending art particularly in the $500 - $50,000 range as a sound long term investment with an impressive current average annual yield of 9.7%. See 'Hang Your Investments on the Wall' in the Financial Times published in October, 2010.
