Quizzical Older Man with German Shepherd and Tall Stick, Vintage Velox Snapshot arcade target perfectly complimenting the fantastic texture

perfectly complimenting the fantastic texture and luminous stony purple-gray of the exterior

this is one of three later 19th c

With a piece of string tied around an old bent nail for hanging

and I think they stand now as quite lovely things

which perhaps could be used in printmaking processes but is also good just sitting around

Quizzical Older Man with German Shepherd and Tall Stick, Vintage Velox Snapshot arcade target perfectly complimenting the fantastic textureWhat a marvelous pair these two make, two very lovelies. And such a gentleness between them a poignant counter to the toughness of studded harness and big stick! Slightly hunched and head cocked, it also feels as if the man is regarding the camera in just the same way he would regard the shepherd, with a mix of curiosity and love and what do you want? (And then the shepherd would return just the same look!) Great. 4 5 16 x 2 5 8 and in good condition.
