About the Item

This 1987 photogravure by Bruce Weber is a portrait of a golden retriever in profile—mouth open, tongue loose, gaze lifted with unwavering devotion toward someone just outside the frame. The light catches the dog’s fur and softens the scene, rendering it both noble and impossibly tender. In Weber’s hands, even a dog becomes an icon of American character: loyal, optimistic, effortlessly handsome. Best known for his portraits of American masculinity and the rituals of summer, Weber has spent his career documenting life at the edges of lakes, beaches, and back porches—those liminal spaces where strength and vulnerability often meet. His photographs evoke memory more than spectacle, and style more than fashion—never posed, always felt. There is elegance in his ease, and a deeply American sense of longing and freedom in the way he frames the world. This image is no exception: timeless, affectionate, and quietly heroic. Custom framed with a deep chip-carved profile and a thin gold filet—refined, but with soul.

The Golden Retriever Photographic Society. ‘Little Bear Ranch, Montana, 1996’
By Bruce Weber
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Friends for Life Bruce Weber’s photographs of the dogs always by his side The photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber is associated with a wide array of imagery: humanist portraits of artists, actors, and athletes; fashion spreads charged with emotion, irreverence, and nostalgia; lyrical tributes to eroticism and an arcadian vision of the American landscape. All these things—and golden retrievers, too. Since the very beginning, Weber has been accompanied on his travels by a pack of these benevolent canines, who have populated his photographs for fashion campaigns, prominent magazines, and the pages of his personal scrapbooks in equal measure. The Golden Retriever...
