"Cocker Spaniel" is a chromolithograph from the "Dogs of the World" series commissioned by Old Judge Cigarettes in 1890. This charming card, featuring a detailed depiction of a brown and white cocker spaniel, was part of a popular series of trading cards that helped popularize dog breeds among collectors. The artwork, attributed to Goodwin & Company, is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. This print showcases the intricate details and lively colors characteristic of chromolithography, a printing process that utilized multiple lithographic stones to create detailed images with vibrant color.
