This graphite drawing of a sitting dog comes to us from the hand of Victor Müller. The dog, an enduring symbol of fidelity and watchfulness, occupies a prominent place in the collective psyche. From the loyal canines guarding the gates of the underworld in ancient mythologies, to their presence in domestic scenes, dogs evoke a sense of unwavering loyalty. Consider, for example, the dogs depicted alongside Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt, or Hecate, the Greek goddess of witchcraft, evoking an emotional connection through the archetype of guardian and companion. This image, rendered in a humble yet evocative medium, taps into our deep-seated emotional connection with animals. As the dog gazes intently to the left, we see the faithful animal and contemplate the relationship between humans and nature. A bond built on trust, companionship, and unspoken understanding.
