A painting representing leashed hounds tied to a tree. It dates back to 18th Century France and the frame is from 1900. It is by followers of Alexandre-Francois Desportes (Champigneule, 1661-1743, Paris).
Alexandre-François Desportes (24 February 1661 — 20 April 1743) was a French painter and decorative designer who specialised in animals. Desportes was born in Champigneulle, Ardennes. He studied in Paris, in the studio of the Flemish painter Nicasius Bernaerts, a pupil of Frans Snyders.
Desportes' influence in the iconography of French arts extended almost throughout the century.
