Rare Oil On Board Painting Of Dog Pulling A Drowned Child From Lake Antique circa 1800

Vinces Vault

VVV240563.T

Antique circa 1800 or thereabouts superb Naive style oil on board painting featuring a scene of that of a Dog pulling a drowned girl child from a lake on the garden grounds of a traditional Georgian stately home, the girl appears to have been picking flowers for her rush basket that now lays half submerged in the water with flowers afloat and drifting beside her body as she stares emptily on, the dog with its maw clamed around her dress pulling the girls body back to dry land. the scene is captured at dusk, adding to the theme and allowing the artist to use a more subdued palette.

The painting is in good condition for age but will benefit from cleaning and is mounted within a convex shadow box style frame that measures 32  cm x 27 cm x 6 cm in dimension with the painting itself having an aperture of roughly 19 cm x 15 cm. 
A rather unusual piece, almost macabre, very Rare and collectible.

This painting is one of a duo of period works of a similar theme and quite possibly the same artist i am listing for sale, please see my other listings if interested.
