Trump

Categories: Animals

The Picture source, Tate, says, about this William Hogarth self-portrait: "Hogarth’s pug dog, Trump, serves as an emblem of the artist’s own pugnacious character." The sculptor Roubiliac who created a bust of Hogarth also modelled Trump in terracotta from which porcelain copies were made.
