EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant illustration by Cecil Aldin, titled "Moufflou" and published in 1915, we see a white Poodle named Moufflou in a profile view, with tears streaming down his face and a heart-wrenching howl escaping his lips. The scene depicts a moment of great sadness and calamity, as the eldest brother of the family, Tasso, is being conscripted to join the army during the early 1910s. The illustration, created by renowned English artist Cecil Aldin, was originally published in the book "Calamities of a Dog" by Ouida. The image captures the deep emotional bond between humans and their dogs, as Moufflou's reaction mirrors the grief and despair felt by his family and himself at the impending separation. The historical context of the illustration adds an extra layer of significance, as it reflects the impact of war on families and their pets during this era. The intricate details and expressive design of Aldin's illustration make it a timeless piece of art that continues to evoke emotions and resonate with audiences today.
