Description
The cutest painting we've got! This vintage charmer shows a litter of four young pups, approximately 4 weeks old, each with a lovely black, tan, and white tricolor coat. While two snuggle together to sleep, one puppy tests his legs out as the fourth sits by and watches the world around him. The artist clearly knows his canines, as the small details will show - from the tiny spread toes and needle-sharp puppy claws to the little red smudge on the muzzle of the sitting pup (perhaps his sibling has played too roughly!).
Though clearly terriers, these are young enough to easily represent your favorite breed - Jack Russell, Rat, or even Smooth Fox terriers. Painted on board, approximately 17 inches long and 8 inches tall, framed in a gold painted wood frame to a finished size of 18 1/8 inches wide and 9 1/4 inches tall. Wire to hang.
Condition:
Alterations: Original Condition Unaltered
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: Excellent vintage condition: some surface scratches and wear to both painting and frame, age-related paint cracking, minor water stain on bottom left corner; frame is vintage with original pins holding the painting in frame missing on 3 sides, held in place with old fabric tape and some nails in the top right corner. Ready to hang and full of charm!
