The artwork, titled “Untitled (Dog On The Beach),” was created by the artist Alex Katz in the year 2002. As a work representative of the Pop Art movement, it falls within the genre of animal painting.
The artwork depicts a serene beach scene featuring a prominently rendered golden dog in the foreground. It stands with a notable presence against a minimalist background of sandy tones, highlighting the animal’s vivid color. In the distance, a human figure is depicted standing near the ocean’s edge, observing the horizon. The contrasting deep blue sea creates a sense of depth and tranquility. The brushwork is expressive, with sweeping strokes that give the painting an almost lively energy. The overall composition evokes a peaceful yet dynamic moment captured in time on the beach.
