1:29Now PlayingUnveiling the meaning behind the sad depicted girls and dogs in Victorian art.
Victorian art frequently depicted sad girls with dogs to evoke sentimentality, emphasizing themes of innocence, loyalty, and empathy. This trend was driven by a Victorian fascination with childhood, the rise of pet companionship, the influence of Queen Victoria's preference for sentimental art, and a cultural desire to explore emotional vulnerability.
