Fotoreproductie van een prent naar een schilderij van Edwin Henry Landseer c. 1860 - 1870

This is a photographic reproduction of an engraving after a painting by Edwin Henry Landseer, created between 1860 and 1870. The image is titled "The Lost Pupil", and depicts a large dog, likely a St. Bernard, sitting forlornly on a wooden floor, its head bowed in sadness. It's a small, intimate artwork, measuring just 124 mm high and 152 mm wide, and is part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum. Landseer was well-known for his sentimental animal paintings and this print captures that style with its depiction of a dog seemingly mourning a loss. This photograph likely was created as a popular print intended for home display, reflecting the popularity of Landseer’s work.
