"Poodle" is a chromolithograph from the "Dogs of the World" series created by Goodwin & Company in 1890. It depicts a white poodle, with a detailed rendering of its fur and a patterned background, suggesting a decorative print. The artwork, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, was likely intended for use as a collectible trading card, highlighting the popularity of dogs and the growing market for tobacco-related memorabilia during this period.
