Portrait Of A Boy With A Dachshund
£425.00
A 19th-century provincial depiction of a young boy and his favourite dachshund. He’s clutching the dear animal quite firmly so perhaps it was a little less keen to sit for its portrait.
The painting is housed within simple gilded frame that’s probably the original.
