Les Chiens Coiffés (c. 1825) — lithograph by A. Cheyère

Canine chic with a wink. This playful 19th-century lithograph lines up well-groomed dogs like salon sitters—pomaded curls, jaunty bows, and proud profiles—turning fashion’s fuss into lighthearted charm. A witty conversation piece with elegant, period poise.

Why it captivates

Humour + refinement — satire delivered with impeccable draftsmanship.
Character studies — each dog a distinct “personality” in posture and coiffure.
Graphic snap — crisp lines and balanced spacing read beautifully across a room.
Timeless palette — warm paper tones suit classic and contemporary interiors.
Conversation starter — delightful in living rooms, libraries, and entryways.

What you’ll see

A neat array of coiffed dogs, shown in profile and three-quarter views with bows, topknots, and trimmed ears. The background stays spare so the expressions, silhouettes, and hairdos take centre stage—elegant, orderly, and gently absurd.

A richer historical frame

By the 1820s, lithography had become Paris’s favourite medium for quick, witty prints—ideal for fashion foibles, social “types,” and anthropomorphic humour. Cheyère’s Les Chiens Coiffés fits this tradition: a salon of stylish sitters, translated into dogs, where grooming trends meet light satire.
