Product details

Terrier by Elizabeth Adela Forbes

Celebrate a love of dogs and historic painting with this reproduction of Elizabeth Adela Forbes’ terrier artwork, dated to the 1890s. Its canine subject makes it a thoughtful choice for a study, hallway or dog-themed gallery wall. Choose it as an individual feature or combine it with other artists’ dog portraits to build a collection with a personal connection to your favourite animals.

About the artist

Forbes was associated with the Newlyn School and painted intimate scenes of everyday life. This animal study offers a connection to her work through the familiar terrier subject. The decade is retained without adding an unverified exact year, named dog or more specific breed identification. It is a reproduction for your wall rather than an original Forbes painting or an antique print.

A place for canine character

Imagine placing the print near a comfortable armchair, with warm wooden furniture, softly textured cushions and a shelf of favourite books nearby. It can introduce a dog-inspired connection into an everyday room without requiring every accessory to follow the same theme. The recorded green, brown and beige palette provides a starting point for coordinating surrounding furnishings or companion prints.

For a dog lover, the terrier subject offers a personal connection to companionship and the animals that make a house feel like home. A smaller format can join an established gallery arrangement, while a larger print gives the Forbes work a more prominent place. Pairing it with Aldin’s Westie keeps a terrier connection, while the Cocker Spaniel and Black Labrador broaden the display to other breeds.
