Barbado da Terceira Portrait in Early Spring Snow

by Barry Sosa

A Barbado da Terceira stands centered in a small, grass-cleared yard near Kirkuk, its thick, wiry coat catching the bright late-afternoon light. Fine snowflakes drift through the air, settling momentarily on the dog's dark muzzle and the bristly texture of its beard before melting. The animal's distinct ear set and broad skull are sharply defined against a backdrop of clipped green turf and a low stone wall. A human hand rests gently on the dog's shoulder, at the base of the portrait in intimate proximity. The scene is captured with natural depth, highlighting the contrast between the rugged fur and the soft, falling precipitation. One snowflake rests on the tip of the dog's nose.
