Timeline

Born in 1848, Trood was an animal painter, specialising in painting dogs in particular, and a sculptor.

Schooled in England, his work is characterised by a highly finished, sympathetic quality with great attention to detail, yet it is rarely sentimental.

Trood exhibited regularly in England but mainly at the Royal Academy from 1879 to 1898. He also exhibited at Suffolk Street, the New Watercolour Society, Grosvenor Gallery and elsewhere.

He died in London on 3 November 1899.

Works by Trood include; “ A Coveted Bone “, “ The Old Man’s Darling “ and “ Home Sweet Home “.
