William Secord, Dog Painting: A History of the Dog in Art, 2015
This charming painting is a wonderful example of the style of English dog portraiture made popular by artists such as George Stubbs and other sporting artists working in England in the 18th century who painted the dogs and horses of the aristocracy and wealthier classes. It follows in the long tradition of celebrating and commemorating our faithful canine companions through paintings and sculpture.
