This chromolithograph, "Dachshund" from the "Dogs of the World" series, was created by Goodwin & Company in 1890 for Old Judge Cigarettes. The image depicts a black and tan dachshund standing on a white background with its head turned to the side. This work was part of a series of trading cards that were given away with packs of cigarettes, making them a popular form of collectible art. This particular card, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is a fine example of the detailed realism achieved through chromolithography, a process that allowed for the reproduction of intricate details and vibrant colors.
