Immortalizing Your Pet Dogs Through Paintings
Drawing rooms in England have, for generations, held the honor of favored dogs, posting them on the walls of the room. Now, it is as if real life counterparts of pedigree dog paintings found at almost every wall in New York City home enjoy strolling throughout Central Park and many other venues. Dogs have always been known as man's best friend and humans have remained devoted to them as well, so this coupled with the fact that English style interiors have become widely popular now is responsible for many dog portraits becoming in demand, whether these feature a beribboned dog, or one with a leather collar, one at play, another at rest.
You will find that dogs are loved so much by Englishmen, who even offer them a place in their family portraits, proving that these pooches will always be close to their hearts. Such paintings depicted to be of hunting, shooting, racing and merely canine portraits according to him was already selling so well every since 1961, when the auction home began the sale of these sporting portraits. A portrait showcasing a Newfoundland which was a white and black dog was sold by the prolific painter for a record breaking price to a man who was so much into art pieces with sporting orientations.
You get to head to another era when you are surrounded by paintings from the 18th and mostly 19th centuries. It is the people who aim to go to activities beyond their social range like hunting, or perhaps shooting with jackets, hounds and horses that are known to be fond clients of such portraits. Believing that there are tons of dog painting lovers out there, an antiques dealer and interior designer opened her own little art shop in the Manhattan district. And you will find here that there are so many dog portraits on blue and white covered walls, along with a few portraits of horses and cows.
When it comes to art collectors, expect two kinds. One are individuals that have the same dog so they'd like to get a certain breed depicted in the painting. The second one are those who know the breed in and out and thus want to see if the dog in the painting was done to give justice to the real anatomical structure of the canine. These portraits are sometimes good enough substitutes for real life dogs that bark and walk. There is never a need to walk or feed these dogs. Having bought his first two dog portraits in London, an interior designer and dog lover regretted it then believing it to be nonsensical but with it now becoming difficult to find collectors' items which are also expensive, he has changed his mind.
This decorator now has a proud array of these canine dog paintings, where some are hanging in taffeta bows at his Manhattan apartment, all 75 of them. While the speculation of most art specialists and dealers commonly note that portrait quality and artist dictate the price of one, still some people would say that like the way fashions in real dogs fluctuate, there are portraits of dog breeds that will always be more wanted than other ones. If Cavalier King Charles Spaniel paintings used to be the only in demand dog paintings, we can now see a growth of people asking for ones with West Highland Terriers, Scotties and Cairn dogs as subjects. A painting of a German shepherd will stay with you for eternity.
It was revealed that the heyday of dog painting was from 1850 to 1920 by a dealer that sells dog paintings right from his modest space in the area of Manhattan. He got so many inquiries for portraits with King Charles spaniels, terriers as well as Chinese shar peis. He shares that he had encountered in the past year about 10 requests for a portrait with a doberman pinscher in it. It was only in the late 1880s when Dobermans were developed and there can be no good paintings of such a breed found and he shares he has never laid his eyes on a swell Doberman portrait.
Various occasions are used by this artist to auction out these sporting paintings. We would witness some of the bidders showcasing designs that echo that of a famous fashion designer and then there are those who are into hunting and racing and enjoy living in country homes. A lady who served a huge network as female advertising account executive decided to get herself a nice Spaniel painting upon gazing at an alluring black and white photograph of a dog. To match the painting, she spent her waiting time by buying an actual spaniel, with a ruby red coat. Three months sped by and led to the arrival of her much awaited portrait but contrary to what she thought, it was actually a black and tan dog even if it was also a King Charles breed but she still kept her unmatched pair of pooches. - 2361
