A charming oil on artist board dog portrait by the artist Martin Theodore Ward 1799-1874. The work depicts the head of a toy breed dog in beautiful detail and with a wonderful expression. The painting is in good untouched condition and does not appear to be signed, however it has a strong attribution on the reverse. The label from the City of York Museum shows it was exhibited in an exhibition of York artists in 1913 it gives the artist’s name and that of the lender. Martin Theodore Ward (1799-1874) trained to paint animals under Edwin Landseer He was the son of eminent engraver William Ward (1762-1826) and nephew of James Ward (1769-1859) which propelled Ward into the elite circles of artistic patronage. He exhibited at the Royal Academy copiously between 1820 and 1825. Ward had a turbulent life and having hailed from London he ended up a recluse in York and is most closely associated with the city. This fine example of his work is framed in a period gilt frame which has had some wear and tear over the years and restoration, but with a great look that suits the painting well. C.1830.
Overall sizes in inches including frame: 14 ¼ by 15 ¾
