    Small portrait of a Jack Russell Terrier by listed and popular artist Maud M. Turner of the United Kingdom. The painting is done on artist board and measures roughly 6 by 8 inches not including the frame.

    From the internet:
    Maud Mary Turner was a 19th-century British artist best known for her refined and expressive canine portraits, working in both oil and watercolor. Like many of her contemporaries, Turner was an advocate for greater visibility of women in the arts and was an active member of the Society of Women Artists, where she exhibited an impressive 23 works over the course of her career.
    Turner’s artistic reputation also earned her recognition at several of Britain’s most respected institutions. She exhibited 50 works at the Dudley Gallery, a venue known for championing emerging and innovative artists, and had two works accepted by the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolors, one of the leading watercolor societies of the time. Additionally, she exhibited at the Royal Academy, one of the most prestigious platforms for artists in the United Kingdom.

    Maud Turner was part of a significant movement of female artists who brought sensitivity, skill, and nuance to animal portraiture, especially in the depiction of dogs. She helped elevate animal portraiture to a respected genre. Her work reflects both the technical rigor and emotional warmth that define the best of 19th-century British canine art.

    Note: The dog's name is listed at the bottom middle but I cannot quite make it out.
