Love Me, Love My Dog
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and sentimental painting that captures the essence of Victorian pet ownership. Painted in 1853 by Charles Baxter, this oil on board masterpiece depicts a young girl with her beloved King Charles Spaniel. The girl's affection for her furry companion is evident as she lovingly holds onto its leash while wearing an elegant hat. The oval-shaped composition adds to the intimacy of the scene, drawing our attention solely to the bond between child and dog. The delicate brushwork and warm color palette evoke a sense of nostalgia, transporting us back to a simpler time when pets were cherished members of the family. Baxter's attention to detail is remarkable; every strand of hair on both the girl and spaniel is meticulously rendered. The inclusion of a walking stick or cane suggests that this may have been a portrait commissioned by an affluent family, highlighting their status and love for their four-legged friend. Displayed at Wolverhampton Art Gallery in West Midlands, UK, this painting continues to captivate viewers with its timeless appeal. It serves as a reminder that love knows no boundaries - whether it be between humans or our loyal animal companions. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to bring home this heartwarming image and celebrate the enduring bond between man (or rather child) and his best friend – his dog.
