From the Publisher
Dogs, Dogs, Dogs! Dignified, Playful, Purebred, Mixed, Miniature, And Massive. In Beautiful Sepia-Toned Photographs With Complementary Quotations From Dog Lovers Contemporary And Classic.
Be they elegant and purebred or gangling, goofy, and of unknown origin, dogs -- winsome, handsome, poignant, funny, feisty, and loving -- have a million moods and faces.
Forty of them are captured in this beautifully designed album of sepia-toned photographs paired with witty, sentimental, astute, and revealing quotations. For example:
"God... sat down for a moment when the dog was finished in order to watch it... and to know that it was good, that nothing was lacking, that it could not have been made better." -- Rainer Maria Rilke
"They never talk about themselves but listen to you while you talk about yourself, and keep up an appearance of being interested in the conversation." -- Jerome K. Jerome
"Bulldogs are adorable, with faces like toads that have been sat on." -- Colette
Jim Dratfield and Paul Coughlin have uncannily captured in both candid and portrait photography the essence of the canine personality, alone and in company with human companions. Their special talent and the timeless elegance of their work are sure to earn them a place in the hearts of animal lovers and admirers of fine photography along with acknowledged masters such as William Wegman and Elliott Erwitt.
