About the Item

This stunning large-format gallery-wrapped giclée captures internationally acclaimed Count Bernard de Claviere’s last Borzoi painting, "Rendez-vous of Borzois"—an homage to his favorite breed. The composition is directly inspired by a classical Borzoi scene created for Ralph Lauren’s private art collection, reimagined through Claviere’s unique lens. In a whimsical yet poignant gesture, the artist includes a sleeping Borzoi at center—his symbolic self-portrait—detached from the world around him. A thoughtful and layered work from a brilliant mind, blending canine elegance with emotional insight. A must-have for Borzoi lovers and collectors of works of art by masters of dog portraiture. Called by the Wall Street Journal "one of the leading animaliers of this century", the late Count Bernard de Claviere d'Hust became familiar with his subject, the dog, long before he began to paint them. Born in Lyon, France, in 1934, the Count raised and trained Borzois while enjoying many a hunt with them. He began painting after studying with such masters as the well known Versailles art restorer, Etienne Polet, and the renowned animal painter, Count Xavier de Poret. Influenced greatly by Velasquez, Poussin, Rembrandt, Oudry and Thomas Stubbs as well as the Italian Renaissance painters, the Count describes himself as a painter who "sees the modern from a classical perspective."
