Delightful oil painting on a metal panel, depicting a dog smoking a pipe and wearing a hat, posed charmingly on a chair. Housed in a gilded gesso wood frame. Attributed to Albert Wagner (1816-1867). There is appears to be some faint writing or signature at the upper right corner. The backing with a label for the early 1900's art dealer and frame factory FW Mittentzwey-Windisch of Leipzig, Germany.
Frame measures 10 3/8" x 8 1/8". Portrait measures 7 1/4" x 5" (sight). In overall good antique condition. Some wear/scuffs to the frame commensurate with age and use.
