"Crossing the Ice"
Published November 25, 1856 by Henry Graves & Co., Printsellers to the Queen, 6 Pall Mall, London.
Painter (signed): Likely Sir Edwin Landseer (based on the signature and subject matter—Landseer was renowned for his paintings of animals, especially dogs, and often signed similarly).
Engraver: Robert Graves (1798–1873), a respected English engraver who worked extensively on portrait and genre subjects in the mid-19th century.
Two hunting dogs (likely a setter and a retriever) navigating a frozen marsh or lake, while their master cautiously crosses behind. A moody, late autumn or winter landscape surrounds them. The title ""Crossing the Ice"" likely alludes to the treacherous, yet tender moment captured.
