EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, created by renowned British artist Cecil Aldin in 1939, captures the essence of relaxation and companionship as an Irish Wolfhound named Mickie takes a leisurely nap on a cozy sofa. The 1930s, a time of simplicity and charm, is beautifully encapsulated in this image as Mickie's paws dangle off the edge of the furniture, and his contented expression speaks volumes about the joy of having a loyal and loving companion by one's side. Cecil Aldin, a prolific and gifted illustrator, was known for his depictions of animals and country life. His ability to capture the unique personalities and quirks of his subjects made him a favorite among collectors and art enthusiasts. In this illustration, Aldin masterfully portrays the grace and elegance of the Irish Wolfhound breed, which has a storied history as one of the oldest and largest breeds in the world. The Irish Wolfhound, with its striking appearance and noble demeanor, has long been a symbol of strength, courage, and loyalty. Originally bred for hunting large game such as deer and wild boar, these majestic dogs have since become cherished companions and family pets. As we take a moment to appreciate the timeless beauty of this illustration, we are reminded of the enduring bond between humans and animals, and the simple pleasures that come from sharing our lives with those who bring us comfort and joy.
