Braided uniform, a chest weighed down with medals and chin held high: this Corgi steps into the role of the old general with unshakeable gravity. The illustration borrows the pose of grand ceremonial portraits to raise this little dog to the rank of hero, somewhere between military pride and an affectionate wink. It is hard not to salute such nerve. Every medal and every stripe looks as though it was painted in deadly earnest, which makes the contrast all the funnier.

The subject belongs to our series of dogs cast as larger-than-life characters, where the costume carries all the humour. In a study, a library or an entrance hall, this portrait shows real backbone and happily starts a conversation. The solemn tone of the pose plays against the corgi's cheerful face and instantly deflates any excess of gravity. Corgi fans and lovers of wall decor that is at once classic and playful will find it in our Dog Posters collection.
