The label is read (with difficulty) "Eisenstadter Schloss" - a castle in Eisenstadt, Austria, near Vienna. Belonged to Count Esterhazy (Esterhazy). Known in the history of the genus. Aby what the picture would not have fallen in the assembly Esterhazy. Ibid label managed to read Zimmer 50 - room or cabinet 50 - apparently the place where originally there was this picture. Give clearer makrofoto all the labels and inscriptions on a stretcher.

very professionally written. Looking for a more clear picture. It looks like the work of Ferdinand Shmuttsera, Austria (Ferdinand Schmutzer, 1870-1928). He wrote a lot dog and horse portraits. Generally, an interesting personality - the artist and engraver, and known in his time photographer.

subscribe to your opinion.
Is an example for comparison. The seller, a gallery owner in Vienna, wants a picture of 900 euros. Size 24,5 x 19 cm

comparison looked through databases Germans 1800 - 1900, which drew the dogs.
It is difficult, potentially in the presence of 10 to infinity. Almost all of the Munich school of drawing animals. They began with the cows and sheep - it was fashionable, but a matter between dogs and cats. The specificity of this painting is the typical size of a desk. In that amount of paint is not many, and find good pictures for meaningful comparison difficult. Of similar found only H. Buettner, 1870, oil on canvas, 68 x 55 cm

sergejnowo, they sent me a box of photos, but they are inferior, everything floats. Read the label is impossible, again all the floats. All are asked to send a normal photo, but in response to silence.

uriart, at no ships there.
For information:
In this castle in Eisenstadt, in the former stables, is an art gallery of local land.
Specialization of the galleries that exhibit completely changed at least 5-6 times a year.
The works are taken to "rolling" with the whole "neighborhood", including Germany. This led to the fact that virtually every major scene of the second half of the 20 century, from the "neighborhood", visited the galleries of the exhibition. This information "pops" through Google in the description of paintings.

I found reproductions of F. Shmuttsera with horses. By the way, small format: two identical 31h26 cm, one year (1889), seems to represent the same stable, and most likely intended for the same customer. Horses in mind is clearly not the peasant.

own work. It simply helps the knowledge of German.
Some German auction houses have a database, such as those to which the school belongs draftsmen. For example http://www.auktion-bergmann.de/Aucti...w=1&cui=RU. Well, then Google, Vikopediya.
But by the end of www.artprice.com, I have there aboniment access and prices and pictures from catalogs. : D

Alert911, if the picture is not a subscription, to establish the authorship of the Western artist, very difficult.
In your message, not enough information for the attribution of the painting.
Sincerely.

true. For instance, one of many.
This artist created a cycle is a typical breed of hunting dogs.
