This chromolithograph, created by Goodwin & Company in 1890, depicts an Otter Hound, a breed known for its hunting abilities, particularly for otters. The image was part of a series of cards produced for Old Judge Cigarettes, which showcased various dog breeds. The realistic depiction of the Otter Hound with its characteristic long, shaggy coat and expressive eyes highlights the breed's hunting prowess. The image, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, captures the artistry of the late 19th century and serves as a historical document of the Otter Hound breed.
