Following Tateās recent publication Love, this new selection of works showcases the most endearing, thoughtful, and amusing depictions of dogs drawn from Tateās collection. Divided into key themesāāHounds of the Hunt,ā āPainterly Pooches,ā āPrincely Pups,ā āManās Best Friend,ā āMoping Mutts,ā āWorking Like a Dog,ā āLap Dogs at Leisure,ā āMystical Mutts,ā and āLoyal Fidoāāthis little book considers how dogs have been the animal companion of choice for millennia and how their position as hunter, signifier of status, and friend has influenced artists. Works of artāincluding paintings, drawings, sculptures, illustrations, and installationsāare introduced by a brief introduction text at the beginning of the chapter, adding background detail or additional information about the art, artists, and their subjects. Featured artists include: Edwin Henry Landseer, Sidney Nolan, Chris Killip, Giacomo Amiconi, Hamo Thornycroft, William Hogarth, Joshua Reynolds, Cedric Morris, Peter Doig, and Edward Ruscha.
