    by Green, Susie, author.
    London, UK : Reaktion Books Ltd, 2019.
    Description: 
    280 pages : illustrations (black and white, and colour) ; 26 cm
    Contents: 
    In the beginning -- The supreme predator -- From the Dark Ages to the end of the Renaissance -- The dog stands alone -- My best friend and I -- The dog's role as a model in life and art -- The dog as adornment in art and the flesh -- An artist's best friend.
    Summary: 
    From the Zoroastrian sculpture of a 100-kilo mastiff to the portrait of a coiffured lap dog, Dogs in Art presents humanity's best friend like never before. Through a wide range of genres, fashions and cultures, from Roman mosaics to pop art, video, impressionism and photography, this book brings together more than 200 breathtaking canine images to tell the story of dogs in art from ancient times to the present. Susie Green considers the artist's often very personal motives behind their work, the vastly different cultural raison d'etres, and the reasons why these sentient, emotional beings are loved and trusted by hundreds of millions of people, including artists such as Hogarth, William Wegman and Lucien Freud.
    Genre: 
    Pictorial works.
