EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching by Harry Rountree showcases the elegant and regal demeanor of a Pekingese dog, a breed that has captivated the hearts of dog lovers for centuries. Dating back to the 13th century, Pekingese dogs were once considered sacred companions of the Chinese imperial court. In this exquisite artwork, Rountree masterfully captures the unique features of the breed, from its lion-like mane and distinctive flat face to its expressive, alert eyes. Harry Rountree, a talented British artist, created this original etching around the 1930s, during the golden age of dog art. Rountree's skillful use of lines and shading brings the intricate details of the Pekingese's coat to life, while the subtle textures and tones convey a sense of depth and dimension. The dog's regal posture and proud gaze exude an air of sophistication, making this a truly timeless piece. The reverse of the etching features Rountree's signature, adding an authentic touch to this collectible artwork. The intricate engraving process used to create this print is evident in the fine details and delicate lines, making it a desirable addition to any art collection or dog lover's home. As a lapdog breed, Pekingese were bred to be companions, and this etching perfectly encapsulates their charming and affectionate nature. Whether displayed as a standalone piece or as part of a collection, this Harry Rountree etching of a Pekingese dog is sure to bring joy and delight to its owner for years to come.
