Dogs in Special Collections
An Exhibit of Books Containing Illustrations of Dogs
May through October 2009
“In shape of dogs and hounds,” wrote Shakespeare, and varied indeed are the representations of dogs. Drawing on a wide variety of works — from books of Shakespeare’s time to little literary magazines of today — this exhibit showcases images of dogs as found in Special Collections: dogs, singular and plural, in a baroque courtyard or Victorian parlor, Arctic camp or western ranch.
