EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the grandeur of "The Championship Open Show of the Ladies Kennel Association at Earls Court". The scene is filled with excitement as toy terriers, known for their lively personalities, steal the spotlight. Intriguingly, amidst all the commotion, an old stager named King Lear stands out. With his wise expression and dignified demeanor, he seems unbothered by the flurry of activity around him. Perhaps he has seen it all before. As we observe this snapshot from history, it becomes clear that these dogs are not mere pets but esteemed competitors in a prestigious dog show. The ladies who proudly present them exude elegance and sophistication, their waists cinched tightly in fashionable corsets. However, not everyone appears enthralled by the event. A bored gentleman gazes on with disinterest; after all, dog shows were often considered more suitable for women than men during this era. This engraving offers a glimpse into London's past when dog shows were highly anticipated social events. It captures both the passion of exhibitors and spectators alike while showcasing the beauty and grace of these beloved canine companions.
