Liggende hond before 1894

"Liggende hond" (Lying Dog), a photographic portrait by Thomas Fall, captures a dog's pensive gaze with remarkable detail. This small-scale photograph, created before 1894, showcases Fall's skill in capturing the essence of his canine subject, highlighting the texture of its fur and the subtle nuances of its expression. As a prominent photographer of animals, Fall's work, like this portrait, provides insight into the Victorian era's fascination with both the beauty and the character of animals.
