A dachshund with a striking merle dapple coat of black and gray stares directly outward against a soft turquoise background, its distinctive long ears splayed to either side and warm tan markings framing its dark nose. The composition centers the dog's face in a straightforward portrait style, capturing an alert, almost quizzical expression with an economy of detail that lets the dog's coloring take center stage. For a dog lover's bedroom, office, or entryway. Printed to order directly onto lightweight aluminum with a high-gloss finish that makes color and detail pop and resists fading over time. A wood backing floats it about three-quarters of an inch off the wall and holds the wire or sawtooth hanger. Available from mini to large, it is original art with a modern, durable edge, not a quick print off a shelf.
