Racing Wall
Dog Enthusiasts Now Collecting Art
Beloved pets are immortalized in many an English drawing room and this has been going on for generations. 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. Thanks to the English style interior now becoming more popular, infused with the loyalty of man’s best friend at the same time to push these canine paintings to become so sought after, regardless if these animals have ribbons or collars of leather, or whether they are hard at play or simply relaxing. More information on the topic of paintings is located at custom pet portrait.
Englishmen are known to love their pet dogs immensely, even awarding these dogs a place in their hearts, as well as in family portraits. In 1961 the auction house began to sell doggy paintings and the ones that sold well are the ones described to involve shooting, racing, hunting and just doggy pictures. This artist made a huge sale that even broke records when he passed his portrait of a Newfoundland, a black and white canine on to a sporting art enthusiast.
Witnessing paintings from the 18th and mostly 19th century can make you feel as if you are in another era. The vast number of individuals that keep on buying these things are those who like being associated with things that are just beyond their social range, and these could include shooting with jackets and hounds and horses or simply some hunting sprees. An antiques dealer who is also an interior design believes that there are so many dog painting enthusiasts today, so she in fact, opened up a store in the bustling district of Manhattan. And in this shop, dog paintings along with a few ones of cows and horses were hung on the blue and white lined walls neatly.
Two kinds unfold in the subject of collectors. The first are the ones going for a breed like the one he has. The other type include people who are very knowledgeable and passionate about certain dog types and so they have to scrutinize the portrait and determine if canine’s anatomy is depicted accurately there. Certain occasions prove people preferring dog paintings than real walking dogs. You will not need to walk them or feed them every time they need to be fed. When he was in London, an interior decorator who was also passionate about dogs got himself two portrait and while he thought that he was being silly back then, now he marvels at how this trading business has become very lucrative and highly in demand.

This guy now has about 75 of these canine artworks and some would be hanging in his apartment from taffeta bows. Even in the midst of many dealers and art specialists emphasizing that it is the quality of the painting along with the artist behind it setting the price standard, people would still insist that like the changes in fashions of real life dogs, some dog painting are just more sough after than other kinds of dogs in a portrait. Many dog art collectors only wanted Cavalier King Charles Spaniel paintings then but now, West Highland Terriers, Scotties and Cairn paintings are also being very sought after. By having a portrait of your German shepherd, you can sit with him forever.
A dealer of dog paintings states that the years between 1850 and 1920 saw the heyday of dog paintings and he did so as he stayed in his small one bedroom space in Manhattan which also serves as his office. People looking for pictures of Chinese shar peis, King Charles spaniels as well as terriers kept knocking at his doorstep. But he was flooded by requests for paintings of doberman pinschers, about 10 of them. No good Doberman painting has ever fallen into my hands and I guess this is due to the fact that this breed has only been developed in the late 1880s and they are a very recent breed.
Paintings with sporting themes are held by this artist as much as he can. Bidders, most of them, have based their designs on the look of a renowned fashion designer while there are some with country houses and are into racing and hunting. A major TV station’s account executive decided to get herself, after poring through a nice black and white photograph, a cute spaniel portrait. While waiting for the painting to arrive from England, she bought a real ruby spaniel to match. The painting, after just 3 months, came to her and it was a dog that had coat colors of black and tan, a King Charles indeed but even if it was unmatched she kept both.
