The William Secord Gallery, the premier gallery specializing in fine 19th century dog and animal paintings is holding a special exhibition to coincide with the Westminster Dog Show. Nineteenth Century Dog Paintings opens on February 9 and runs until March 22, 2008. If you can’t make it to New York, view the wonderful paintings online.
