Product Description

This delightful framed print by renowned British artist and illustrator Cecil Aldin captures the warmth, humour and irresistible charm that made his dog illustrations so enduringly popular.

Titled "What Became of the Plum Pudding?", the artwork depicts an adorable group of mischievous puppies gathered around an empty plum pudding dish. Featuring Dalmatian, Jack Russell Terrier, Spaniel, white Terrier, Pekingese and Irish Setter puppies, each wears an innocent expression that leaves you wondering who really ate the pudding.

The title refers to the traditional British plum pudding, the festive dessert now more commonly known as Christmas pudding. This charming detail makes the print especially appealing not only to dog lovers, but also to anyone who appreciates British heritage, Christmas traditions and vintage illustration.

Cecil Aldin was renowned for his affectionate and humorous depictions of dogs, horses and country life, and his work continues to be admired by collectors around the world.

Presented in a vintage wooden frame with glass, this piece is ready to hang and would make a wonderful addition to a gallery wall, hallway, study or living room. It also makes a thoughtful gift for dog lovers or anyone with a love of classic British interiors.

The reverse retains both the original title label and the George Kirk picture framer's label from St Leonards-on-Sea, adding to its vintage character.
