Description
THÉODORE LAFITTE (France, 1816-ca.1875).
"Dogs".
Oil on canvas.
Signed in the lower left corner.
Size: 105 x 144 cm; 127 x 163 cm (frame).
Artist specialised in animalistic painting, Théodore Lafitte gives us the image of two hunting dogs. This work is strongly influenced by English animal painting, determined to depict horses - but also dogs such as the present ones - described with particular detail, which are in fact portraits of real animals. This type of work has a clear, simple, classical composition, with the figures in profile in the centre, large in size, in a landscape or interior setting. In these works the painter's attention is always focused on the description of the animals' anatomy, the warm glow of their fur and their proud bearing, as if it were a portrait of an important personage.
