"Round Portrait of a Brown and Black Terrier,"
French, 19th Century, circa 1850s
Oil on wood panel
9 x 9 inches frame
One of a pair of charming portraits of Black White Terrier.  The frames are original to each piece and have recently been cleaned.  Though the painting and especially the frame show signs of expected age-related wear, nothing interferes with the overall charm and character of the painting.
