EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Saved by a dog" depicts a heartwarming scene from the 20th century. In this image, we see a young girl who has fallen into a canal at Saint-Dizier, France, being rescued by an incredibly brave and loyal dog. The colour litho beautifully captures the intensity of the moment as the girl clings onto her rescuer while still partially submerged in water. Published as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on January 12,1902, this artwork showcases not only the heroism of animals but also highlights the importance of their presence in our lives. The child's face reflects both fear and relief as she is saved from drowning by this remarkable canine companion. The composition further emphasizes the significance of this rescue with its inclusion of various wildlife animals surrounding them. A walking stick can be seen nearby, symbolizing human intervention in saving lives. This powerful image reminds us that sometimes unexpected heroes come to our aid when we least expect it. It serves as a testament to both human-animal bonds and acts of bravery that transcend language barriers and cultural boundaries. As we admire this extraordinary piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us celebrate not only the courage displayed here but also acknowledge how these moments shape our understanding of compassion and kindness across generations.
