ROBERT LIVINGSTON DICKEY.
Puppies in a basket. Watercolor and pencil on board. 356x470 mm; 14x18 1/2 inches. Signed lower right. Few minor nicks at edges where once mounted, 1/4 inch vertical cut along bottom edge. Stamp of American Artist Co. and penciled date on verso. In his typically charming style of animal painting, Dickey shows a "quinpuplet" of boxer babies tucked into a cottony bassinet in various states of bottle feeding; their orange toy balls sitting nearby on the ground give a pop of color. 1937.
