Antique Oil Painting of a Dog Sir Edwin Landseer 1802 - 1873 Circle of 19th Century Follower

A magnificent and large sized genuine antique 19th century oil painting on canvas, which has recently been relined and restored to museum condition and now ready for display.

This fine example of a large and beautifully painted genuine antique late 19th century Sir Edwin Landseer painting of a handsome dog by water, is offered for sale in exceptional condition and ready for display set within a wooden and gilt frame. The painting is signed with an initial “W” in the bottom left hand corner of the cleaned and relined antique canvas. Although Edwin Landseer did sometimes sign his works with a “W”, we have not had the opportunity to see if this painting could actually be attributed as yet to Sir Edwin Landseer himself, hence we are currently stating this restored well executed canvas is by a follower of Landseer.

This perfectly executed antique restored and professionally cleaned to museum standard oil painting, is by a very accomplished follower and very likely also of the circle of Sir Edwin Landseer. Painted in the late 19th century also, this large and very fine antique restored oil painting was titled by Sir Edwin landseer as 'A Distinguished Member of the Humane Society', study of a Newfoundland.

The measurements for this large restored canvas excluding the frame:

Width: 89.5 cm

Height: 69 cm

The frame adds further width and height and although is pleasant to look at with this fine antique restored canvas, we feel perhaps a more flamboyant baroque or rococo gilt frame would be more appropriate for this wonderful antique 19th century oil painting on a relined canvas.
