We went to antique market on Alameda Island 3 months ago, where I saw this wonderful painting. The face reminded me of Spanish painting, and decided to buy it. I kept looking at it, wandering what kind of dog it is ? Checking web did not help.
I was walking down the street one day , and there , across the street, was my dog ! . I run to talk to the owner . ”What is he ? It is a newfoundland ” was an answer.
A month later , during a walk with my Australian cattle dog , I met another newfoundland owner and told him about my painting. ” There was an English painter named Edwin Landseer ” he told me, “look him up ” .
I did , and found similar painting…..
A million dolar question is – is it painted after him ? Can it be an early painting by Landseer ?
Any suggestions ? ?
