Description: | A collaborator with Rubens and Jordaens, the Antwerp artist Frans Snyders was one of the first great still life painters. He often included animals in his still lifes, and this lively depiction of a hound and a terrier stealing a pig's trotter from a heaped basket is no exception: the composition must have been a favourite with Snyders's buyers, as three other versions and a copy are known to exist. | Subjects: | still life; animal (dog) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Snyders, Frans (Flemish painter, 1579-1657) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8620... | Go to resource |
