Description
Total Dimensions: Height 9'' x Width 15''Approximate Weight: 15 LBS. the famous surrealist sculptor- made a sculpture of a Saluki dog in 1951. It was simply entitled: "Dog". Yet the model itself is not as simple as one would believe. Many dog researchers believe, that the Saluki - an Egyptian hunting dog - is recognized as the oldest breed of dog in the world. In 1965, He recalled the genesis of the dog sculpture: " One day I was walking along the Rue de Vanves, in the rain, close to the walls of the buildings, feeling a little sad perhaps, and I felt like a dog just then. So I made that sculpture. The sad muzzle has a likeness to the Saluki."
