EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1953, showcases three champion Afghan Hounds named Cleopatra of Khorrasam, Moonbeam of Khorrasam, and Portrait of Khorrasam. The trio proudly stands together, their shaggy coats glowing in the autumnal light. Their fluffy tails are held high, and their alert expressions radiate a sense of regal pride. Afghan Hounds, known for their distinctive appearance and agility, originated in Afghanistan and were originally bred for hunting. These three champions, owned by Mr. Snelling, were likely prized for their exceptional conformation, speed, and hunting abilities. The autumn leaves, with their vibrant hues of red, orange, and gold, create a stunning backdrop for the trio. The soft light filtering through the trees adds an ethereal quality to the scene, making it a truly breathtaking moment in time. Cleopatra, Moonbeam, and Portrait were not just dogs, but champions in their own right. Their names, bestowed upon them by their proud owner, reflect their unique qualities and the special bond they shared with Mr. Snelling. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and grace of these magnificent animals, as well as the enduring connection between humans and their canine companions.
