Wolves in Art
By Paige
Wolves Attack – Józef Chelmonski
Lately we’ve been featuring quite a bit of art in dog form, whether it’s dogs & their men, dogs & their women or just plain dogs we like to see canines on a canvas.
Today we are going to take a look at some wilder cousins and the animals that domestic dog originally came from…the wolf. Here is a selection of wolves in art – not all of it is very wolf-friendly but the artwork remains the same.
Both majestic & mysterious, the wolf is perhaps best only caught on film or canvas.
