Vintage Oil Painting of Black Dog on Wood Panel





Vintage Oil Painting of Black Dog on Wood Panel
A soulful vintage oil painting of a black dog, likely once a beloved pet Evocative, atmospheric, and full of quiet character — a one-off emotional piece.
This evocative vintage oil painting captures a resting black dog, rendered in moody tones of deep charcoal, olive green, and faded teal. The brushstrokes are expressive and raw, lending a folk-art charm to the composition. Painted on a sturdy wooden panel with visible texture and ageing, this one-of-a-kind piece carries the unmistakable emotion of someone commemorating a beloved pet.
Likely created mid-century or earlier, the painting is unsigned except for what appears to be "ROX" scratched faintly into the bottom corner. A string hanger remains attached to the reverse, suggesting it was treasured and displayed in someone’s home for decades.
The board shows age-related marks and wear to the surface (see close-ups), all of which add to its nostalgic authenticity. A soulful addition to any rustic or story-filled interior — this piece invites curiosity and conversation.
