 Irish wolfhound postcard Postcard published by E.T.W. Dennis & Sons Ltd., London & Scarborough. The painting is by Minnie Keene, sister of the landscape artist Ezra 'Elmer' Keene. They were born in Osberton near Worksop in Nottinghamshire in the mid-1800s. Their parents were Stephen Keene, a miller from Melksham in Wiltshire, and his wife Elizabeth whose family came from Ireland. Minnie specialised in pastels of animals. Some of her work was issued by the distinguished Leicester textile company Wolsey.
This particular painting was also published as a birthday card, which came out in 1918, but the postcard is undated.
