Crufts Dog Show: A Victorian Celebration of Canine Excellence - Sketches of Winning Dogs and Their Owners (circa 1899) The Crufts Dog Show, established in 1891, was a much-anticipated event in the Victorian era, drawing enthusiasts from all corners of the United Kingdom and beyond. This collection of sketches, dating back to circa 1899, offers a glimpse into the world of this esteemed competition and the unbreakable bond between man and man's best friend. The illustrations showcase a diverse range of breeds, each vying for the top prize. Among them, the Great Dane, Sandor, stands proudly with his owner, Mr. Redgrave, his powerful stature a testament to the breed's regal heritage. Edwin Brough's Bloodhound, Biscobel Duchess, is depicted with an air of determination, her keen sense of smell and unwavering loyalty on full display. The Newcastle Borzoi, White Tsar, graces the page with an elegant poise, while the Duchess of Marlborough's Newfoundland, Triumph, exudes strength and grace. The Esquimaux, Tidman, and his owner, Mr. Tidman, bring a touch of exoticism to the competition, their Arctic breed a stark contrast to the more common English breeds. The Bulldog, Duke of Albemarle, and his owner, Thomas, present a more familiar sight, their bond a testament to the enduring popularity of this beloved breed. The Pomeranian, Black Pom, and her owner are a charming contrast, their small size belied by the fierce determination in their eyes. These sketches not only capture the essence of the Crufts Dog Show but also the deep connection between the dogs and their owners. The 1890s may have been an era of change, but the love and admiration for these magnificent animals remained constant.
