This week's theme: The Dog Show

Last week in New York, NY, The Westminster Kennel Club held it's 139th annual dog show. Because of the number of dog lovers in this world, the telecast was eagerly watched by many. As a service to the dog people that did not get enough dogs last Monday and Tuesday, EBSQ's Art of the Day presents seven more days of dogs.

Art: Young Perseus - Sold by Artist Judith A Brody

Here is young Perseus with his dog, in the background, foreshadowing of his future; the mirrored shield with which he dispatched Medusa and the Argonauts' ship. This is one of those "surprise" results, a painting that started life as a pure abstract and then morphed and morphed. Ah, the joys of a classical education.
