EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to 1927, showcases the elegant and regal presence of Champion Pung-Chow of Alderbourne, a Pekingese dog named Miss Marjorie Ashton Cross's cherished pet. The image captures the essence of autumn with the warm hues of the leaves surrounding the duo, adding a cozy and inviting atmosphere to the scene. Miss Ashton Cross, dressed in a stylish hat and coat, cradles her Champion Pekingese in her arms, showcasing the breed's distinctive features - a small, compact body, a profuse coat, and a proud, wrinkled face. The Pekingese, with its dark, round eyes and expressive gaze, returns the affectionate look of its owner. As a Champion, Champion Pung-Chow of Alderbourne was a proud representative of the Pekingese breed, which originated in China and was highly prized for its distinctive appearance and companionship. The breed's history dates back to the Han Dynasty, and it was believed that these dogs were companions to Chinese royalty and nobility. This photograph is a testament to the deep bond between a loving owner and her beloved pet, as well as a snapshot of a bygone era. The autumnal setting adds an extra layer of charm and nostalgia, making this image a delightful addition to any collection of vintage dog photographs.
