Favorite Dog Art Books: “Faithful and Fearless: Portraits of Dogs”
While we wait for “Museum of Dogs” to be released (pre-order your copy today!) I wanted to share some very inspiring dog + art books I’ve been collecting along the way.
The first one is called “Faithful and Fearless: Portraits of Dogs,” and it was published to commemorate the dog art exhibit (“Portraits of Dogs: From Gainsborough to Hockney”) at The Wallace Collection in Marylebone, London.
The exhibit was dreamed up by museum director Xavier Bray whose pug Bluebell (aka Lady Wallace) receives a well-earned shout-out at the end of the book.
The book cover is by David Hockney whose paintings of his dachshunds Stanley & Boodgie are among my very favorite pictures of anything ever ❤️
Thank you for making this show and book happen Xavier and The Wallace Collection!
