EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Greyhound in all its glory. The color lithograph, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, is now part of a private collection. The artwork was originally featured as an illustration for Aunt Louisas Home Companion, a beloved children's literature published by Frederick Warne around 1880. In this delightful image, we see the elegant Greyhound surrounded by balls and toys, suggesting it may be receiving a present or enjoying playtime with its young owners. A beautiful ribbon adorns its neck, adding to its regal appearance. The historical significance of this piece lies not only in capturing the grace and charm of this magnificent breed but also in providing insight into popular parlour games during that era. The presence of a walking stick hints at the game being played - perhaps one involving throwing or rolling balls for the Greyhound to chase after. This parlor game would have brought joy and laughter to both children and adults alike. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this extraordinary piece from history through their fine art printing process. As we admire this remarkable photograph print, we are reminded of the deep connection between humans and animals throughout time – our shared love for pets transcending generations.
