An antique Victorian painting of two dogs in a field chasing a pheasant
Titled 'Sport on the Moor'
A moor is an open space of uncultivated land, typically covered in heather
This terminology indicates the painting is most likely of UK origin
A mostly neutral colour palette of cream, grey and brown with some blue and green
Oil on canvas stretched over a timber frame
Surrounded by its original gilded ornate gesso frame
Frame size 53cm wide x 58.5cm high
Painting size is 34.5cm wide x 39.5cm high
Certainly not a perfect item- the painting has some age related marks and slight discolouration, small holes, indentations and little perforations. There has also been a tear to the middle of the canvas that has been repaired quite well. The frame has considerable and obvious losses to the gesso plaster along with knocks and chips. A piece for those who like the chippy, rustic & timeworn look in their interiors.
This item is antique and not new- there are age related blemishes and imperfections. Please study the photos closely to determine condition prior to purchase.
