FANNY M. BURKE (ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA, 1861-1933) HUNTING-THEMED WINTER LANDSCAPE PAINTING, oil on canvas, an oversized depiction of two hounds/hunting dogs huddling together in a stark winter landscape at sunset, after the original, titled "Lost Dogs", by Otto von Thoren (painted in 1873, and which hung at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington DC). Signed and inscribed "Painted from a photograph / by Fanny M. Burke / 1908" to canvas verso. Housed in an outstanding gilt-and-gesso Rococo-styled frame. Circa 1908. 40" x 50" painting, 51" x 60 1/2" OA.
Catalogue Note: Frances Maury "Fanny" Burke (1861-1933) was the great-great granddaughter of Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) through her mother's side. The lineage is as follows: her mother Martha Jefferson Trist Burke (1826-1915), her grandmother Virginia Jefferson Randolph Trist (1801-1882), her great grandmother Martha Jefferson Randolph (1772-1836), her great-great grandfather Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826). Burke is listed in 1899 as having an art studio in Alexandria, Virginia on the corner of King and Fairfax streets, and the census lists her occupation as an artist until 1930 when she is listed as having "no occupation".
Painting in excellent condition with no repairs or restorations noted; but it sits very loosely in the frame, which has moderate wear including moderate losses to upper and lower left corners, with scattered splits and chipping throughout the scrolling decorative ornaments.
Deaccessioned from, and sold for the benefit of, the Muscarelle Museum of Art at William & Mary.
