EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing engraving titled "Dogs and Food" created by S. T. Dadd in the 19th century, we are transported to a chaotic scene that is both humorous and alarming. The image captures a moment of sheer madness as dogs, monkeys, and even a mischievous cat engage in an intense battle over food. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays the frenzy unfolding before our eyes. Dogs leap through the air with jaws wide open, attempting to snatch morsels from each other's mouths while cunning monkeys join the fray, adding another layer of chaos to the scene. Amidst all this commotion, a sly cat seizes the opportunity to indulge in some petty larceny by stealthily stealing food from unsuspecting victims. This artwork not only showcases animal instincts but also hints at human behavior through its underlying themes of violence and robbery. It serves as a reminder that even our beloved pets can display primal tendencies when it comes to satisfying their hunger. "Dogs and Food" offers us a glimpse into an era long gone while simultaneously reminding us of timeless aspects of nature: survival instincts and competition for resources. With its blend of humor and tension, this print captivates viewers' attention, leaving them pondering on how closely related humans are to these animals in moments like these.
