This chromolithograph, part of the "Dogs of the World" series for Old Judge Cigarettes, depicts a Pomeranian dog standing in profile. Created by Goodwin & Company in 1890, this small-scale artwork is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection and showcases the breed's characteristic fluffy white coat and curled tail. The image was likely intended to be included in a trading card set, making it part of a popular 19th-century method of advertising.
