Our Artist's Notes at a Dog Show
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of a weary and disheartened competitor in the world of dog shows. The engraving, created by John Charles Dollman in 1878, portrays a tired and poor lady who appears to be filled with shame as she observes her fellow competitors basking in the glory of their pampered dogs. The scene is set on the moors, where delicate and confined dogs are showcased for all to see. The exhausted competitor dreams of past victories while surrounded by her fellow exhibitors' prized canines. Her weariness is palpable, as if she has been through countless dog shows before this one. In this dreamlike state, she finds solace in her own thoughts, reminiscing about better days when her property was adorned with ribbons and accolades. However, reality sets in as she realizes that those days may be long gone. The artist skillfully depicts the exhaustion and sleepiness that have overtaken our protagonist. Her drowsy eyes convey a sense of weariness that only those who have experienced such events can truly understand. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the highs and lows experienced within the competitive world of dog shows. It invites viewers to reflect on the dedication required to participate in these events while also highlighting the emotional toll they can take on individuals striving for recognition amidst fierce competition.
