Oil on canvas. Signature of the artist, date bottom left, the name "Fox" under the black dog: a paper label on the back explains, with the title, that Fox is the name of the dog. On the back, there is another label from the Art Gallery of Montecatini, where the painting has been displayed in 1972. Filippo Palizzi, originally from Vasto but artistically trained in Naples, represents, along with his brother, the first attempt of Realism in the Italian painting of 1800, in the footsteps of the Neapolitan School. He was called the "animals painter", but he also mainly represented glimpses of rustic corners and views of Naples and its surroundings. He was one of the first painters to be interested in photography and practice it, and he often used his or other's photographs as a model for his paintings. The painting is presented in a frame in style.
