Portraits

 Touc, Seated on a Table ca 1879-81

They showed me this portrait of  a pretty interesting dog, Touc, by Henri de Toulouse Lautrec (French 1864-1901). My guys saw this at the Hammer Museum in LA and they thought I might enjoy it.  Good try - but seeing as how the painter was French - could he not have found a poodle to paint? Still, I think it catches the essence of this dude (or dudette - hard to tell if I can't sniff)
