About the Item
Title: Prize Dogs at the Crystal Palace Show - Published in *The Graphic*, June 15, 1872.
Description: This hand-colored engraving, published in *The Graphic* on June 15, 1872, presents a variety of prize-winning dogs from the prestigious dog show held at the Crystal Palace in London. The illustration showcases several distinct breeds that received recognition at the event, with each dog depicted in a detailed and naturalistic style. The dogs are posed in different arrangements, highlighting their features and individual personalities.
At the top, three close-up portraits show the faces of various breeds:
1. "Myrtle" – A Shetland Sheepdog (Second Prize).
2. "Snow" – A Yorkshire Terrier (First Prize), pictured alongside another dog.
3. "Ajax" – A Bulldog (First Prize).
In the larger lower section of the print, the following prize-winning dogs are featured:
4. "Lano" – A Setter (First Prize).
5. "Rowan" – A Bloodhound (Female, First Prize).
6. "Rovella" – A Bloodhound (Male, First Prize).
7. "Two Greyhounds" (First Prize in both Male and Female categories).
8. "Charlie" – A King Charles Spaniel (Second Prize).
The dogs are depicted lounging or sitting, allowing the viewer to appreciate their form, size, and coat texture. The engraving beautifully captures the pride and elegance of these award-winning animals, which were celebrated for their breeding and presentation at the show.
The Crystal Palace Dog Show was one of the premier events for canine enthusiasts in Victorian England, showcasing a wide variety of breeds and attracting considerable attention from the public and the press. The inclusion of this illustration in *The Graphic* reflects the fascination with pedigree dogs and animal breeding during the 19th century.
About the Publication and Technique:
*The Graphic* was a British weekly illustrated newspaper known for its detailed and high-quality wood engravings, often accompanied by hand coloring to bring the images to life. This print was created using wood engraving, followed by hand coloring to enhance the naturalistic representation of the dogs. The dog show at the Crystal Palace was a significant cultural event during the Victorian period, and this engraving provides a visual record of the esteemed prize-winning breeds.
