This is an old dog sculpture by Alberto Giacometti. The shaped dog is hunched over and sniffing here and there with its head down. It looks long and thin as if only a skeleton remains. His fur droops. When we feel it in detail, it is a strong sense of loneliness.
What is Alberto Giacometti Famous for?
He is best known for his human figures. Although Giacometti also painted and designed ornaments. But Giacometti is best known for his sculptures, especially figures. His work focuses on elongated single figures.
Among them, there are usually walking man statues or standing figures, and combinations of figures in different spatial situations. Giacometti had a unique vision for reducing his subjects to hard-working but slender figures.
The work of Alberto Giacometti is very detailed. They are so fine that when the sculpture knife touches them, they disappear into the dust. For Giacometti, their heads, feet, and bodies are only real if the sculptures are sufficiently thin.

Emotional Expression of Dog Sculpture:
The rickety back curve of the dog sculpture is as vivid and smooth as if drawn with a paintbrush. Look at that man, he looks like a dog. Every word is full of sarcasm and contempt.

This is himself, one day I saw myself walking on the street, exactly like this dog sculpture.
