Chest lined with medals and eyes fixed on the horizon, this Australian Shepherd wears a ceremonial military uniform like a decorated officer standing to attention. Its odd-coloured eyes and merle coat play against the strict embroidered collar and gilded epaulettes, giving this herding dog the bearing of a parade hero. The seriousness of the pose, worthy of a general's portrait, commands respect even as it makes you grin.

This print belongs to our series of dogs in period costume, gathered in the Dog Posters collection. It cuts a proud figure in a study, a library or the bedroom of a young enthusiast. The staging will appeal to Australian Shepherd fans and lovers of solemn portraits given a mischievous twist.
