"Fox Hound" is a chromolithograph from the "Dogs of the World" series created by Goodwin & Company in 1890 for Old Judge Cigarettes. The print depicts a fox hound, a breed known for its hunting prowess, in a realistic style with detailed markings. This piece showcases the popular use of animal imagery in advertising and collectible card sets during the late 19th century, often used to promote tobacco products like Old Judge Cigarettes. The print is currently held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
