EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, taken in 1918, captures the playful and regal demeanor of two Pekingese dogs as they lounge on a pink velvet cushion. The image, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the history of this ancient Chinese breed that was first brought to Europe in the 1860s. The Pekingese, also known as the Lion Dog, is a small breed with a distinctive lion-like appearance, characterized by their long, flowing coats, large eyes, and distinctive wrinkled skin. Originally bred as companions for Chinese royalty, they were highly prized for their loyalty and affectionate nature. In this photograph, the two Pekingese dogs, with their proud expressions and well-groomed coats, seem to embody the breed's regal heritage. The pink velvet cushion, adorned with intricate floral patterns, adds a touch of elegance to the scene and highlights the luxurious lifestyle enjoyed by these beloved pets. The year 1918 was a significant one in the history of the Pekingese breed. It was during this time that the breed's popularity began to wane in Europe, as the First World War and the subsequent economic downturn led to a decline in the ability of many people to afford expensive pets. However, the breed continued to be cherished by those who could, and today, the Pekingese remains a beloved companion breed, known for its loyal and affectionate nature. This photograph is not only a delightful depiction of two charming Pekingese dogs, but also a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era when these dogs were considered symbols of wealth and luxury. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and enduring appeal of this ancient breed.
