EDITORS COMMENTS
In this whimsical 19th-century engraving titled "Dog-Fancying and Dog-Painting" the artist S. T. Dadd invites us into a comical scene filled with humor and mischief. The print captures a moment on a quiet doorstep, where Mr. Bompas, a young man dressed in black, is engrossed in his favorite pastimes: dog-fancying and dog-painting. With an air of cleverness, Mr. Bompas showcases his skill by showing off his white dogs to his wife, who stands beside him with a frying pan in hand. Her expression seems to rebuke her husband's peculiar hobby while also offering consolation for their pets' undeniable cuteness. Meanwhile, a dealer inspects the adorable puppies that Mr. Bompas has ordered - perhaps adding to his already impressive stock of canine companions. As he touches the pockets of his coat, it becomes evident that these furry creatures hold more than just sentimental value for him; they are cherished like precious gems. Amidst the laughter and amusement depicted in this artwork lies an underlying message about human connection with animals - how our love for them can bring joy even in unexpected ways. This print from Bridgeman Images reminds us of the timeless bond between humans and their beloved pets throughout history.
