Title: Sven Erik Hellqvist (1916-1997); Three Horses in the Green Grass Meadow Large 20th Century Oil Landscape Description: A Hamiltonstovare Hound "Flicka of Druan" by Dorothy Alexandra Johnson (1902-1988) signed lower right oil painting on canvas, unstretched 5.5 x 7.5 inches A delightful painting by the highly regarded English dog artist Dorothy Alexandra Johnson. Featuring the dog with its formal kennel name. Signed lower right and inscribed lower left. This work forms part of a collection we currently hold by Dorothy Johnson. It is small but beautifully executed. On flexible canvas, too small to stretch, so the ideal way to display this would be affixed to a backing board and framed to suit your taste. The approximate 1950's date we have attributed here is based on the canvas being a different type to some earlier work we had in the collection. Dorothy Alexandra Johnson was born in 1902 in Nottingham, England, and remained there her whole life. Attending the Nottingham School of Art and having studied under Arthur Spooner, a respected animal artist, it is no surprise that her work from the 1930's focused entirely on art relating to dogs, recording images of many significant canine breed champions. condition report: Very clean, good clear strong colour, has been stored for many years, never on display. No creases, all good and clean.
