Beautiful Rick!

I've seen that one on a period calendar at auction not so long ago.
I love the theme and that setter is perfect! Reminds me of Cam and me a couple of years ago.
I wish I could have commisioned Osthaus to paint Grace for me.
He must surely have been a bird hunter - he really 'nails it' in every one of his paintings.

Here's an original painting by Bob Kuhn. It ended up as a Remington calendar. I'm guessing it was done in the 50's or 60's. It's titled "Up too soon". Anyone who has hunted behind a poorly trained Springer understands.
