The Meeting Place

A picture full of dogs. Six different dogs of varying breeds gather together as if for an important meeting. Our favorite is the little shaggy fellow in the foreground.

This circa 1865 illustration is sadly not attributed to any artist. Aunt Louisa’s Birthday Gift, written by Laura Valentine (d.1899) and published by Scribner, Welford and Co.; included many animal images that I have shared with you on Reusable Art.
