Eleanor and Amy Lipschutz collection of Dalmatian portraits

Scope and Contents

The four photographs in the collection were taken by Rudolf Tauskey (1888-1979), widely considered the reigning king of canine portrairture for over 50 years. They feature the dalmatians Ch. Dottidale Jo Jo, Dottidale Little Lu Lu, Dottidale Black Buttons, and Dottidale Jolly Roger.

All measure 11 x 14, a size uncommon amidst surviving Tauskey prints, and appear to have been specially prepared for display purposes.
