Description

This is a copy of Pug, a circa 1890s oil on canvas by listed Dutch painter Conradijn Cunaeus, 1828-1895. This painting illustrates a portrait of a perky nineteenth century vintage classic pug dog at home.
Conradijn Cunaeus war ein niederländischer Tiermaler sowie Lithograf. Cunaeus studierte von 1844 bis 1849 an der Koninklijke Akademie van Beeldende Kunsten und bei Nicolaas Pieneman. Von 1854 bis 1868 lebte er in Koudekerk aan den Rijn, später von 1870 bis 1888 in Amsterdam, dann in Nieuwer-Amstel.
The pug is a breed of dog originally from China, with physically distinctive features of a wrinkly, short-muzzled face and curled tail. The breed has a fine, glossy coat that comes in a variety of colors, most often light brown or black, and a compact, square body with well-developed muscles.
