Hond in een aanvallende houding tegenover een hok c. 1886

"Hond in een aanvallende houding tegenover een hok" (c. 1886) is a photograph by Ottomar Anschütz that captures a dog in a dynamic, attacking pose. The animal is caught in mid-motion, its body tense and its mouth open in a ferocious snarl. The dog is positioned in front of a small doghouse, further emphasizing its aggressive stance. Anschütz was a pioneer of photographic technology, using innovative techniques to capture the fleeting movements of his subjects. His work in photographic studies of animal movement is a notable contribution to the history of photography. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of animal behavior as seen through the lens of a dedicated artist.
