European Graphite Drawing of Greyhound and Poodle in a Garden Landscape

A delicately rendered graphite drawing capturing a quiet moment between two dogs—a reclining greyhound, elegant and alert, and a spirited poodle perched playfully on its haunches. They’re set within a softly detailed woodland landscape, where a parrot perches in the branches above, and leafy flora and wild ground cover surround them. The scene has a tranquil, almost enchanted stillness, evoking the intimacy of a garden once lived in and now observed.

Executed in fine, linear strokes with soft gradation, the work shows a strong hand for both anatomy and atmosphere. Likely drawn by a European artist in the mid 20th century, it captures a timeless, almost fabled view of rural life, one in which animals seem to share a quiet understanding across species.
Framed and ready to hang.
