Beautiful, detailed steel engraving from the picture by Sir Edwin Landseer.
One looks at this group of dogs till we mentally ask what they would tell us of their thoughts if they had but the gift of speech? That they are all thinking and observing is evident by the expression in the face of each, and though the heads are in different positions, the eyes have a common focus of attention.
Printed on heavyweight ivory/cream stock. Reverse side is blank.
