This charming and alluring subject matter of a young boy feeding a treat to his dog incorporates a wonderful sense of a 17th c. interior view of a room setting. This collaboration of artists Hove and Leys is among a group of genre painting that they became best known for. This example is perhaps one of their best works we have seen.
