This week Art Critic, Estelle Lovatt FRSA , comes back to chat about the landmark art collection in The Wallace Museum - Portraits of Dogs: the faithful and the fearless.

 

We chat about why this collection spanning 300 years truly captures the essence of living with dogs and their role as man’s best friend. Estelle discusses the importance of art, before the camera as being our source of history and why the works selected resonate. From Lucien Freud, Gainsborough, Stubbs, to Hockney, De Vinci, and Sir Edwin Landseer - the collection reflects the way dogs capture our hearts. From symbols of loyalty, faithfulness, fearlessness, to just being our stead fast companions.
