<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An engaging, richly-illustrated look at the special connection between people and their beloved pet.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This is a wonderful overview of the remarkable range of dog portraits--there are no human sitters--produced over the last 250 years. It features well-known works such as Rosa Bonheur's <i>Brizo</i>, (one of the best-loved portraits in The Wallace Collection), George Stubbs' <i>Turk</i>, Thomas Gainsborough's portrait of his two dogs Tristram and Fox, Lucian Freud's oil painting of Pluto, his pet whippet, and David Hockney's dachshunds Stanley and Boodgie.</p><p>Over 50 works, arranged by theme, are drawn from major British collections, including the Royal Collection, the V & A, Tate Britain, the British Museum, and a wealth of regional museums and private collections. In addition memorabilia and souvenirs-bronzes, photos, brooches, and Faberge works, many relating to the British royals, especially Queen Victoria and her children- all evoke the sense of a cabinet of curiosities. This is a must-have for dog lovers.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Xavier Bray is the director of The Wallace Collection, London, UK. Bruce Fogle MBE, DVM, MRCVS is a clinical veterinarian and a prolific author.
