it turns out that this painting came up for auction in 2019. The auction listing URL is https://fineart.ha.com/itm/paintings/carl-friedrich-schulz-german-1796-1866-young-boy-resting-beside-a-fence-with-hunting-dogs-1835oil-on/a/5411-69071.s and the image there is better than this one.
Cornered by the hounds, little Fritz awaits the mounted police, who will finish him off with the coup de grace. “Stop und Fritz” – a cruel policy, but it DID reduce crime !
both have info about this artist (again, if the full askart.com bio doesn’t show because it’s been added to, it can be read in full for free on Fridays), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the title URL, which indirectly points to his German Wikipedia page:

P.S. A somewhat odd feature of this painting is the artist actually signed and dated it twice, first in 1834, and then in 1835 (keeping the 1834).

Not a bad gig for an after school job. It beats carrying golf clubs for jerks at the country club.

Very funny, very clever. Obviously the dogs had a change of heart when they cornered the endearing little boy!
