"Newfoundland" is a chromolithograph from the "Dogs of the World" series produced by Goodwin & Company in 1890. This print, part of a set of collectible cards distributed with Old Judge Cigarettes, depicts a black Newfoundland dog in profile, standing against a light background. The image is notable for its detailed rendering of the dog's thick fur and its use of color to highlight the animal's features. It is part of a larger series of artworks created for a commercial purpose, providing a glimpse into the popular interest in dog breeds during the late 19th century.
