EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Prize Dogs at the Alexandra Palace Show" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the world of prestigious dog shows. The image showcases an array of magnificent canines, each vying for recognition and glory. The scene is set at London's iconic Alexandra Palace, where breeders and enthusiasts have gathered for this highly anticipated event. Amongst the crowd are esteemed figures such as Mr. W Herbert Singer, Mr. Bold Robinson, and Dr. J Russell – all prominent judges in their field. As our eyes wander through the print, we encounter a diverse range of breeds: from bloodhounds to pointers, spaniels to retrievers – every dog exudes elegance and poise. Each animal seems meticulously groomed and trained to perfection. Amidst this display of canine excellence stands Flora - a majestic St Bernard who has captured everyone's attention with her regal presence. Nearby is Fred - an adorable pug whose charm melts hearts effortlessly. However, not everything is pure celebration in this depiction; tragedy looms in the background as Faust - a brave terrier - mourns his recent loss while seeking solace from Mentor - his loyal companion. This engraving serves as both a testament to human dedication towards breeding exceptional dogs and an homage to these remarkable animals themselves. It encapsulates the passion that drives individuals like Mr G Pilkington or Mr H Maule to devote their lives to these four-legged companions. Through
