EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Carrier dog of the Indians, also known as the Techichi of Mexico. This remarkable creature is considered to be the ancestor of the beloved Chihuahua breed, Canis lupus familiaris. Standing proudly beside this ancient canine is a young Alco dog, Yzi-cuinte potzotli from Mexico. The image, captured by William Home Lizars and handcoloured with meticulous detail, transports us back in time to witness these fascinating creatures in all their glory. Colonel Charles Hamilton Smith's drawing serves as the inspiration for this steel engraving that beautifully depicts these two canines. The significance of these dogs cannot be understated. They hold a special place in American Indian culture and are deeply intertwined with Native Americans' lives and traditions. These dogs were cherished companions and played vital roles in hunting expeditions alongside their human counterparts. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are reminded of the rich history surrounding these animals - from their connection to Toltecs and Techichi to their eventual evolution into modern-day Chihuahuas. The intricate details captured by Lizars bring life to each strand of fur on these magnificent creatures. This print not only celebrates the beauty and diversity found within different dog breeds but also pays homage to our shared history with animals throughout time. It serves as a reminder that our bond with canines transcends generations and cultures alike.
