This chromolithograph, titled "Bulldog," was created in 1890 by Goodwin & Company as part of the "Dogs of the World" series for Old Judge Cigarettes. It depicts a classic Bulldog, showcasing its distinct features, including its stocky build, wrinkled face, and strong jaw. The illustration is done in a detailed, realistic style, capturing the animal's powerful presence. This artwork, now held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, represents a fascinating connection between popular culture, advertising, and the artistic documentation of the animal world.
