EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent grey spotted hound, painted in 1738 by the talented artist John Wootton. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 101.6x127 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. Wootton's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the essence of this elegant hunting dog amidst a picturesque woodland landscape. The hound stands proudly, its sleek coat adorned with striking grey spots that blend seamlessly into its surroundings. With an air of nobility and intelligence, it exudes both power and grace. The composition not only highlights the beauty of this remarkable creature but also pays homage to its purpose as a skilled hunter. The presence of birds such as pheasants and pigeons within the painting further emphasizes this aspect, showcasing the hound's prowess in tracking down game. As we gaze upon this timeless work of art, we are transported back to a bygone era when hunting was not merely a sport but an integral part of life. This portrait serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with animals and their roles within society. Thanks to Fine Art Finder and www. bridgemanart. com, we can now appreciate this exceptional piece from Wootton's collection without any restrictions or limitations imposed by copyright laws.
