EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the artistic process unfolding on the picturesque beach of Biarritz, France, in the year 1926. Madame de Roberts, a renowned Borzoi artist, is seen in the image, deeply engrossed in her work as she skillfully draws the elegant and regal breed on the sandy shore. The Borzoi, a Russian sighthound, sits patiently beside her, its sleek coat glistening in the sunlight and its eyes fixed on the artist with an air of quiet confidence. Biarritz, a popular resort town along the Bay of Biscay, was a favorite destination for the European aristocracy during the 1920s. The stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and elegant villas provided the perfect backdrop for leisurely pursuits, including artistic endeavors. Madame de Roberts, with her dedication to capturing the essence of the Borzoi breed, found inspiration in the beautiful surroundings and the companionship of her beloved canine subjects. The black-and-white photograph, taken during this era of glamour and sophistication, evokes a sense of timeless elegance. The simple scene of an artist and her model on the beach becomes a testament to the enduring bond between humans and their dogs, as well as the power of art to capture the beauty and essence of the natural world.
