{"product_id":"renaissance-dogs","title":"Renaissance Dogs","description":"Our four-legged friends have witnessed the creation of some of history’s greatest works: Shakespeare’s plays, da Vinci’s masterpieces, the Sistine Chapel, the first printed book, and even the flushable toilet. Behind the achievements of every great innovator is their dog: sometimes enthusiastically looking on, at other times asleep. Or chewing a bone. Or sniffing another dog’s bum...\n\nRenaissance Dogs celebrates not just the delightfully odd-looking doggy depictions of the era but also our insistence on ensuring our furry friends’ place in history alongside our own. This carefully curated, full-color compendium of over 100 canine portraits immortalizes a wide array of pups, from the creepily humanoid dogs of the early Renaissance period (painted by artists who, clearly, had never seen a dog in their life) to the beautifully rendered canines of the Enlightenment.\n\nEnjoy a humorous peek into Renaissance art and literature with witty captions, interesting dog facts, and excerpts from famous literary works accompanying astoundingly funny portrayals of our favorite canine companions.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49516646858980,"sku":"9798217273133","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0226\/7765\/files\/1fe800e57aaf3bcd70a7616bee7a91bdda5bf07780dd586d6e4b1a6aacb31c7f.jpg?v=1785206286","url":"https:\/\/shoppenelopes.com\/products\/renaissance-dogs","provider":"Penelope's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
