19th-Century Lithograph of Various Dog Breeds, Including Poodle and Pug

About the Item

19th-Century Lithograph of Various Dog Breeds, Including Poodle and Pug This charming 19th-century lithograph features a diverse group of dog breeds, each depicted with remarkable attention to detail. The illustration includes the butcher’s dog or guard dog (De slagershond, waakhond), the Bolognese dog and spaniel (Het Bolognesesch hondje, De spaniël), the Löwchen or little lion dog (Het Leeuwtje), the pug (De mops), and the poodle (De poedel). Originally published in *De Zoogdieren: afgebeeld en in hunne levenswijze geschetst*, this lithograph highlights the variety of domestic dog breeds popular in Europe during the 19th century. The butcher’s dog, a working breed, was commonly used for guarding property and livestock. The Bolognese and spaniel are both companion breeds, known for their affectionate nature and elegant coats. The Löwchen, or little lion dog, is a rare breed with a distinctively trimmed mane-like fur. The pug, originally from China, gained widespread popularity in Europe, especially in royal courts. The poodle, depicted in a relaxed pose, is one of the most intelligent and versatile breeds, historically used for retrieving waterfowl. Created by C.C. G. Zool. and printed by La Haye & J. L. G. V., this lithograph is a valuable addition for collectors of antique dog prints, zoological illustrations, and canine history enthusiasts. Keywords: 19th Century, Lithograph, Natural History, Zoology, Dog Breeds, Poodle, Pug, Spaniel, Löwchen, Guard Dog, Scientific Illustration, Antique Print, Animal Engraving, Wildlife Art, Taxonomy, Netherlands, La Haye, J.L.G.V. --- Condition Summary: The print is in good condition, with some minor age-related toning and light foxing, mainly along the margins. The lithographic details remain crisp, with intricate shading that enhances the texture of each dog's coat. The edges show slight irregularities due to past binding, but no major tears or folds are present. The overall quality is well-preserved, making it suitable for display. --- Framing Tips: For the best presentation, use an acid-free mat in a soft neutral tone to enhance the delicate shading of the lithograph. A dark wooden or black frame will provide an elegant contrast, highlighting the finely rendered fur textures. UV-protective glass is recommended to prevent fading over time. If displayed with other lithographs of dog breeds, matching frames will create a harmonious and professional display.
