Painting of the Week - Samuel Fulton
Portrait of a Springer Spaniel
This charming British Victorian dog portrait is by renown animal artist Samuel Fulton. Painted circa 1900 the composition is of a Springer Spaniel sat on some straw outside with a wall behind them. The spaniel is liver and white coloured with a predominantly brown face and ears with white on its muzzle and white legs and tummy. She is wearing a collar and gazing directly at the artist/viewer. Fulton has perfectly captured her soft fur, fluffy ears and sweet nature. This is a lovely British Victorian dog portrait oil painting and if you love dogs, how could you resist?

Woody
I'm sure you can see the likeness! This was our gorgeous springer spaniel Woody who shared our lives for 14 and a half years. She was a bundle of energy and would run for miles. Her favourite place was Gwithian Sands in Cornwall -she would run down the steps and make a bee lline for the sea, no looking back. Happy days.
