EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph by Waterhouse Hawkins, published in London around 1850, showcases the incredible versatility and utility of dogs throughout history. The image depicts a fascinating array of canine breeds, each with their unique purpose and skill set. In the foreground, we see a magnificent St Bernard braving the treacherous snow to rescue stranded travelers. Known for their lifesaving abilities in alpine regions, these gentle giants have become synonymous with courage and compassion. Beside them stands a powerful Husky pulling a sledge through the Arctic wilderness, highlighting their exceptional strength and endurance in extreme conditions. Moving towards the center of the print, we encounter a Collie sheepdog diligently herding livestock with remarkable intelligence and precision. Alongside is an imposing Newfoundland dog ready for water rescue missions; their webbed feet and strong swimming abilities make them ideal companions for maritime emergencies. Further back in the composition, a graceful Deerhound represents its hunting prowess as it gazes intently into the distance. These swift quadrupeds were highly valued for pursuing game during hunts. Finally, tucked away at one corner is a loyal guard dog serving as an effective deterrent against burglars—a testament to canines' protective instincts that have been harnessed by humans over centuries. Waterhouse Hawkins masterfully captures both beauty and functionality in this graphic illustration from his series on animals' utility to man. This mesmerizing lithograph serves as an enduring tribute to our faithful four-legged companions who have played indispensable roles throughout history.
