Cassell was known for his animal paintings, particularly scenes of terriers, which were popular in Victorian England. Painting features four terriers seemingly engaged in a playful scuffle in a barn. The scene is full of movement and tension, as the terriers are seemingly caught in mid-jump or ready to pounce. The use of warm browns and golden tones enhances the barn's earthy feel. The brushwork gives texture to the dog's fur and the barn's straw. Wood frame with gilt inner molding. Painting is signed by artist in the right lower corner. See less
