Vintage Framed Hand Embroidered Dog Art
This exquisite framed needle art captures the spirited charm of a Wire-Haired Fox Terrier (or possibly an Airedale) in a classic mid-century folk style. Dating from the 1940s or 1950s, this piece is a wonderful example of hand-crafted vintage textile art, perfect for the discerning dog lover or collector of mid-century decor.
The Art Piece:
Subject: A lively terrier, likely a Wire Fox Terrier, standing proudly with one paw raised, depicted in beautiful brown and tan threadwork on a natural, unbleached linen or homespun cotton fabric.
Stitching: The embroidery is skillfully executed, utilizing a fine straight stitch or possibly a combination of stitches to create the texture of the dog's wire coat and the shading of its markings. The simple, bold black lines for the shadow and the striking red thread of the leash add wonderful contrast.
Condition: In excellent vintage condition, consistent with its age. The fabric is clean, the colors are vibrant, and the stitching is intact. The back of the picture has an adorable little Christmas gift tag with an inscription and dated 1954. Please see all photos for visual condition.
Frame: Housed in its original, complimentary wood frame with a warm, natural brown finish, which perfectly suits the folk art aesthetic of the needlework.
A True Piece of Mid-Century History:
The Scottie and other Terriers were immensely popular mascots in the 1930s-1950s, often appearing in home goods.
