Framed Print of 'Dachshund and Two Old Men' by Hermann Arminius Koch

This item is a framed fine art print depicting a humorous genre scene. The artwork features two elderly men leaning over a counter or table, engaged in an affectionate interaction with a small dachshund. The man on the left wears a blue garment with a distinctive red-orange muffler, while the man on the right is dressed in a textured brown coat. The color palette is composed of earthy, muted tones with a painterly texture that suggests a reproduction of an original oil painting by the German artist Hermann Arminius Koch (1843-1882). The print is housed behind glass in a multi-layered framing system: an inner dark wood fillet, a wide cream-colored matboard, and a substantial outer profile frame made of stained wood with a visible grain. The construction appears to be high-quality decorative framing. Regarding condition, the outer frame exhibits some mild surface wear, specifically visible nicks and scratches along the lower horizontal rail that reveal lighter wood underneath the stain. There is a prominent horizontal light reflection across the glass which obscuring center details, though the print itself appears well-preserved within the mounting. The style is 19th-century European realism, though the framing suggests a late 20th-century assembly. There is no visible signature on the face of the print itself, which is typical for mechanical reproductions used in home decor.
