Sinopsis

In Spain, it is estimated that up to 100,000 hunting dogs are abandoned at the end of the hare coursing season every year. This book documents those dogs that have been rescued and sets them against the locations in Spain where they are typically abandoned: the sides of roads, the ravines and the empty car parks. Shot in a style that references the tone and mood of Velzquez, who painted at a time when these dogs were treated with great respect, Martin Usborne's photographs show both the classical beauty of the animals and the ugliness of their modern situation.
