This chromolithograph by Goodwin & Company from 1890 is a part of the "Dogs of the World" series commissioned by Old Judge Cigarettes. The print features a detailed depiction of an English Setter, a popular breed known for its hunting prowess. The artwork is part of a larger collection of cigarette cards showcasing various dog breeds, which were given away as promotional items to encourage cigarette purchases. The intricate details and realistic portrayal of the dog's coat and stance demonstrate the artistry of Goodwin & Company, and the card's small size, measuring just 3.8 x 7.1 cm, highlights the popularity of collectible trading cards in the late 19th century.
