| About the painting - by Daniela Ria:
Weimarainer in full uniform. The Weimaraner is a silver-grey breed of dog developed originally both for tracking large game, such as bears, and as a pointing breed. Today's breed standards developed in the 1800s. The breed was created strictly for the nobility. The aim was to create a noble-looking, reliable gundog. Photographs of famous photographer William Wegman made this breed increase its popularity. |
