Literature: Illustrated in the preface of August P. Trovaioli and Roulhac B. Toledano, William Aiken Walker: Southern Genre Painter. Gretna: Pelican Publishing, 2008. Notes: An avid sportsman, William Aiken Walker enjoyed the recreational pursuits of hunting and fishing. The artist frequently traveled to southern resorts with the intent of selling his paintings to wealthy vacationing tourists and would join his patrons on hunting excursions. Walker painted nature mortes of fish and game as well as dog hunting scenes. This portrait of a "Hunting Dog" reflects Walker's admiration for the hound's abilities in the field and is signed by the artist on a blade of grass. Ref: Trovaili, August P. and Roulhac B. Toledano, Wiliam Aiken Walker: Southern Genre Painter, Gretna: Pelican Publishing Co, 2008.
