Dog with Shell

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture "Dog with Shell" by artist Ando. A small, intricately carved figurine of a dog sitting on its haunches with its head lowered. The dog's fur is rendered through detailed black lines on a cream-colored material. It holds a large shell in its paws and mouth, with the shell's opening facing outwards. The shell's surface features darker markings. The dog's ears are rounded and fold forward beside its head. The background is dark gray, fading to black at the top.
