About the Item
Monumental Oil Canvas, Georges Henri Fauvel, Hunting Dogs with Master, 19th Cent A very large and impressive painting hanging 139 by 89 inches having a group of finely detailed hunting hounds led by their master in the hunt. 19th century, relined. Signed lower right. Born in 1890 in Havre (Seine-Maritime), France. He was a painter of animals, especially dogs- his breed of choice being Basset Griffon Vendeen (Grand). Throughout his life he won much acclaim and a special medal of recognition at the beginning of his career. Fauvel was a friend of Eugene Pechaubes 1890-1967 which can be seen in their subject matter and also their soft use of colour. Neither men used strong lines or hard angles- and both chose a composition that drew from a traditional way of painting- leaning towards impressionism but without giving up any detail and definition of the subject. Publicly exhibited works include: “Chiens attendant le depart” (1904) and “Salles des gardes, chiens de Saint-Bernard,”(1909). Dimensions: Framed; Height: 89" Width: 139" Depth 3" Unframed; 85.5" Width: 135.5"
