Dog on a chair 1882

Sir John Lavery's "Dog on a Chair" (1882) is a striking oil painting depicting a dog, likely a terrier, resting on a striped cushion. The dog's fur is rendered with impressive detail, capturing its texture and color. The setting is a cozy interior, indicated by the dark wood of the chair and the warm tones of the cushion. Lavery was known for his portraits and this work showcases his talent for capturing the character of his subjects, even when it's a furry companion. This intimate portrayal of a domestic scene is a testament to Lavery's skill in capturing the essence of everyday life.
