About the Item
French oil painting on panel “Dog lying in front of fireplace” 19th century
Thematically, the work aligns with 19th-century realism, which focuses on everyday, non-heroic subjects. The dog functions as a symbol of loyalty, calm, and domestic stability. Rather than depicting drama, the painting captures a quiet, timeless moment in which movement seems suspended—reflecting the late 19th-century interest in atmosphere, intimacy, and close observation.

Pierre-Charles Comte (23 April 1823 – 30 November 1895) was a French painter. He was born in Lyon and died in Fontainebleau. His works include The Oath of Henri de Guise and The Coronation of Inês de Castro in 1361.
Comte was a pupil of Claude Bonnefond at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Lyon between 1840 and 1842. He then moved to Paris to enter the studio of Joseph-Nicolas Robert-Fleury.
He exhibited at the Salon in Paris between 1848 and 1887, and in Lyon. He obtained a 3rd class medal at the Salon of 1852, a 2nd class medal at those of 1853 and 1855 and a recall in 1857. He received a 3rd class medal at the Universal Exhibition of 1867. He then settled in Fontainebleau.

English Late 19th Century Vertical Oil Painting of a Dog Sitting in an Armchair
Located in Atlanta, GA
An English late 19th century oil painting of a dog sitting in an armchair with red cushion in giltwood frame. This exquisite animal painting features a short hair caramel colored dog, majestically sitting in a chair, in a manner reminiscent of Velasquez' depiction of Pope Innocent X. A red cushion, whose deep tones contrast beautifully with the dog's coat, assures us that the dog is very comfortable! Dog portraits became popular during the 18th century among the hunting aristocracy, and the establishment of The Kennel Club in 1873, further encouraged their popularity. This portrait is a perfect example of this trend. Set inside a lovely giltwood frame, this vertical format English dog portrait...
