EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sketches at the Antwerp Dog Show" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of dog shows. The print showcases a bustling scene from the renowned Antwerp Dog Show, which was held in Belgium during that time. The image captures various dog enthusiasts and their beloved pets gathered around a show board, eagerly awaiting their turn in the spotlight. Amongst them are English and German dog keepers, each proudly displaying their well-groomed canines. A majestic Great Dane stands tall among the crowd, exuding elegance and grace. The artist skillfully portrays the atmosphere of excitement and anticipation that fills the air as visitors admire different breeds such as Griffon Vendeen and Norwich terriers. It is evident that this event holds great significance for both participants and spectators alike. Through this engraving, we catch a glimpse of how dogs have been cherished companions throughout history across Europe's Benelux countries. The illustration originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on June 14th, 1884 – an era when dog shows were gaining popularity worldwide. This historical piece not only celebrates our enduring fascination with dogs but also serves as a testament to our shared love for these loyal creatures across borders. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of how dogs continue to bring joy to our lives today while honoring their rich heritage within European culture.
