{"product_id":"slapende-hond-sleeping-dog-fine-art-print","title":"Slapende hond (Sleeping Dog) - Fine Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed 1890 etching depicting a dog in a state of quiet repose, rendered with fine, rhythmic line work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis etching, dated 1890, captures a quiet moment of repose. The subject is a dog curled in sleep, rendered with precise, rhythmic lines that define the texture of its fur and the weight of its body against the ground. The artist employs a delicate hatching technique to create shadow and volume, particularly along the animal's back and the curve of its haunches. The composition is simple, focusing entirely on the form of the resting creature, with a small bowl placed in the background to provide a sense of domestic context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work reflects a late nineteenth-century interest in observational drawing. Artists of this period often turned to their immediate surroundings for subject matter, finding value in the mundane activities of household animals. The etching process allows for a high degree of control, visible here in the fine, controlled strokes that delineate the dog's ears and the soft tufts of hair. The background remains largely unworked, which directs the viewer's attention to the central figure. The presence of the date in the upper right corner and the monogram in the lower left suggests this was a deliberate, finished study rather than a casual sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis print offers a glimpse into the technical standards of printmaking at the end of the century. The use of line to suggest form without the need for heavy shading is characteristic of the period's graphic arts. It is a study of stillness, capturing the animal in a state of complete relaxation. The muted, monochromatic palette of the etching process complements the subject, lending the image a sense of calm and understated observation. It is a piece that rewards close inspection, revealing the care taken in every stroke to convey the physical presence of the sleeping dog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/drie-voorstellingen-van-een-meisje-met-kuikens-een-kom-en-een-pop-hendrik-valkenburg\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eDrie voorstellingen van een meisje met kuikens, een kom, en een pop - Hendrik Valkenburg — Hendrik Valkenburg\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/two-fish-in-the-water-leo-gestel\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eTwo Fish in the Water - Leo Gestel — Leo Gestel\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fine Art Print","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58794434101583,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58794442391887,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58794442424655,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58794442457423,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58794442490191,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58794442522959,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58794442555727,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58794442588495,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58794442621263,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58794442654031,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58794442686799,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58794442719567,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Slapende-hond-Sleeping-Dog-_Poster_CompositorV1_1789539551140.jpg?v=1789540332","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/slapende-hond-sleeping-dog-fine-art-print","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
