Dignity and Impudence. after Landseer.


An oil on canvas titled "Dignity and Impudence" after Sir Edwin Landseer, the original painted in 1839.
Landseer's dog paintings of the 1830s are among his most celebrated works and Dignity and Impudence remains the most popular of all. Many, including this work, consist of commissioned, life-size 'portraits' the rest are independent subjects, smaller in scale and usually with a narrative content. Here Landseer wittily contrasts the scale and character of a bloodhound called Grafton and a West Highland terrier called Scratch. Both dogs belonged to Jacob Bell, who commissioned the picture.
This painting has been done in the Victorian Period and is in a slightly disressed Victorian frame. It does not appear to be signed. It has a small mark or scratch to the canvas, as shown in the pictures but it does not distract from the painting, although it could benefit from a clean.
Dimensions areapprox. 28 inches by 22 inches. WE CAN BE CONTACTED ANYTIME ON MOBILE 07966 398123
