You are bidding on a very rare original antique engraving from an 1870s French illustrated journal.

It depicts a Braque Du puy French Pointer dog. Braque du Puy was an old breed of hunting dog in France, bred for hunting in the lowlands and known for being fast and flexible. The breed was created in Poitou in the 19th century by crossing other Braques with greyhound-type dogs. One story is that two brothers named du Puy crossed their Braque Francais dog with a Sloughi brought back from Africa by a French soldier. 

Below her is information on the breed standard.


The caption reads:  Le Braque Dupuy
which roughly translates to:   Du Puy Pointer

It is very large (folio size), measuring approximately 10.5 x 14.5 inches (26.5 x 36.5 cm). The picture area is about 
7.5 x 5.5 inches (19 x 14 cm), with a French caption below and text surrounding it. The text could easily be trimmed before framing, or hidden under a window mat.

The page is in excellent condition for its age. There is text/photos on the back of the print. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.

This print will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
