The Dog Collection
Famous Dog Paintings
Recreated by Hand
Explore famous dog paintings by artists who understood that a dog is never merely an accessory. This curated collection moves from royal favourites and celebrated breed portraits to sporting dogs, loyal companions and intimate studies by Landseer, Stubbs, Courbet, Gérôme, Renoir, Hogarth and others. Across six focused rooms, you can compare how painters captured alert posture, movement, soft fur, character and the bond between people and animals. Every work shown here is available as a hand-painted oil reproduction on real canvas—not a print or mechanical transfer—and can be ordered in a range of sizes and presentations. Whether you are drawn to a dignified greyhound, an expressive spaniel, a faithful hound or a lively scene of dogs at play, this catalogue offers a deeper route through the long history of dogs in art.

Spaniels, Pointers, Poodles and Great Dogs
Breed portraits combine close observation with personality. Silk ribbons, alert stances, dense coats and bright eyes distinguish spaniels, pointers, poodles, Saint Bernards and Newfoundlands without reducing them to simple specimens.

Hunting Dogs and Sporting Paintings
Sporting artists studied dogs in motion and at attention. Setters, pointers, deerhounds and spaniels appear beside game, water and mountain terrain, revealing the stamina and concentration for which each animal was prized.
04
People and Their Dogs
A dog can change the emotional temperature of a human portrait. These companions suggest affection, status, protection or independence while making formal sitters feel immediate and alive.

Artists’ Studies and Dog Portraits
Focused studies reveal how painters built convincing canine portraits from shape, fur, gaze and gesture. From Renoir and Bonheur to Gérôme and Courbet, these works reward a closer look at the craft of animal painting.

Choosing a Dog Painting Reproduction
Each artwork is recreated to order with oil paint on canvas. Choose a portrait that matches the character, scale and atmosphere you want for the room.
I.
Painted by hand
A trained painter rebuilds the image in oils, preserving visible brushwork, colour and the small details that give each dog its expression. These are not canvas prints.
II.
Choose the right composition
Single-dog portraits suit intimate walls and portrait groupings, while sporting scenes and paintings with several figures work well at a larger scale above substantial furniture.
III.
Size, framing and delivery
Select an available size and presentation on the artwork page, or contact ByMuseum for a custom dimension. Every reproduction includes free worldwide shipping.
