  PAINTING OF A GERMAN SHORTHAIRED POINTER ON HAND-CARVED WOODEN PANEL, circa 1910-1930’s, AMERICAN, POSSIBLY OF MICHIGAN ORIGIN
Dimensions (inches): 11.75" x 10" x 5/8"
Description:
Hand-carved wooden panel with a oil-painted portrait of a German Shorthaired Pointer. Beautifully executed, with tallgrass against a modeled sky of blue and drab yellow, the work likely dates to the period between roughly 1910-1930’s, though it could perhaps pre- or post-date this slightly. Whatever the case may be, the colors, form, and surface are wonderful.

Provenance: Ex-Denny Tracy (1940-2016), long-time Michigan dealer with great taste in small painted objects and a particular affinity for sporting-related items.

Condition: Small amount of varnish added to paint chip on muzzle. Minor losses along edges. Extremely minor dots of loss elsewhere.
