Newfoundland, Art Deco Dog Notebook

Newfoundland, Art Deco Dog Notebook A black Newfoundland with a broad, gentle face stands above the Mediterranean in a black military-style coat with rows of gold buttons. A gold laurel collar with a ruby pendant rests on his chest, like a medal for a lifetime of heroic swims. Sailboats drift across the bay behind him and cypress trees line the cliffs, and his soft brown eyes show the sweet nature of a true gentle giant. That noble sweetness shapes the whole design. The Newfie's thick black coat is rendered in deep faceted planes that stand out boldly against a radiant ringed sunburst. Gold buttons and laurel bring warmth to the dark palette, and a stepped gold frame rises around him like the entrance of a 1920s harbour club. A turquoise bay and bright clouds set off a jewel-box palette of gold, emerald, black, and ruby. Four gold paw-print medallions hold the corners, marbled emerald panels and stepped geometric bands build the frame, gold fans crown the top and bottom, and the bold black NEWFOUNDLAND title plaque names the portrait in true 1920s style. • Black Newfoundland wearing a gold-buttoned coat above a Mediterranean bay • Radiant Art Deco sunburst, gold laurel collar, and ruby pendant • Gold paw medallions in every corner with emerald marble and ruby details • Part of the Art Deco Notebook Collection
