EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, taken in 1935, showcases a unique moment between two Saluki dogs named Champion Orchard Ahmud, owned by Mrs. Crouch. At first glance, it may appear as if the two dogs are facing each other, but this is in fact a clever optical illusion. The Saluki, also known as the "Royal Dog of Egypt," is an ancient breed known for its grace, speed, and slender build. In this image, we see two perfect reflections of the same dog, captured from different angles. The reflection on the left shows the dog with its head turned to the left, while the reflection on the right reveals the dog's head turned to the right. Mrs. Crouch, an enthusiastic dog lover and breeder, was likely proud of her champion Saluki, Champion Orchard Ahmud. The image captures the dog's elegant posture and striking features, with its long, sleek coat and piercing eyes. The photograph, taken in 1935, is a testament to the beauty and allure of the Saluki breed, as well as the skill of the photographer in capturing this trick image. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the bond between a dedicated owner and her beloved champion dog.
