The print titled "ODIN" is a steel engraving created in 1879, based on an original work by Sir Edwin Landseer, a renowned British artist known for his animal portraits, particularly of dogs and horses. The engraving was executed by C.G. Lewis, a skilled engraver whose work captures the intricate details and textures of Landseer's original. The print features a detailed portrait of a Basset Hound named Odin, showcasing the dog's distinctive long ears, wrinkled brow, and soulful expression. The engraving is meticulously crafted to highlight the dog's fur and the collar around its neck, which bears the initials "E.L." The print includes the inscriptions "SIR E. LANDSEER, R.A. PINXT" and "C.G. LEWIS, SCULPT," acknowledging the original artist and the engraver, respectively. Additionally, the print is marked "PUBLISHED BY N.Y.," indicating its publication in New York. Landseer's work is celebrated for its emotional depth and technical mastery, making this engraving a notable example of 19th-century animal portraiture.
