Young dachshund 

Carl Reichert, a German painter known for his animal portraits, captured the charm of a young dachshund in this oil painting. The puppy is depicted with a curious expression, its front paws resting on a wooden surface. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the fur, eyes, and paws, creating a realistic and endearing portrayal of the beloved breed. Reichert's works often featured domestic animals, reflecting the Victorian era's appreciation for the companionship and beauty found in the natural world.
