Dog in the night, by Yoshitomo Nara, 1995

Gustave Caillebotte and his dog in front of the Louvre in 1876, photographed by Martial. We find this beautiful light on the cobblestones so present in Gustave's paintings.
Having inherited a large fortune, Gustave and Martial Caillebotte were able to fully live their passions. Gustave painter, Martial photographer.
In addition to his personal research, Martial took numerous photos at the request of his brother. Gustave made dozens of sketches. He knew how to introduce photographic framing into his painting. This is a dazzling leap forward.

Here it is described by Jean Genet:

"The bronze dog by Giacometti is admirable. It was even more beautiful when its strange material: plaster, strings or mixed tow, frayed. The curve, without marked articulation and yet sensitive, of its front paw is so beautiful that "she alone decides the dog's flexible gait because he strolls, sniffing, his muzzle lying at ground level. He is thin.

1923 for this work on paper by Francis Picabia, “Dog Trainer”.

Picasso and dogs, a long and very varied history.

Here with "Lump", the sacrilegious one that he drew and painted many times and who had all the rights.

This magnificent photograph by Neenad Joseph Arul, photographer from Mumbai, India, makes me want to do a new series on dogs.
