Coton de Tulear Resting on Woven Rug

A Coton de Tulear lies curled on a textured woven rug in a Basel apartment, its cloud-like white coat against the flat gray wall behind. The dog rests beside a low modern couch under the harsh, even glow of overhead fluorescent lighting. Early winter light does not penetrate the room, leaving quiet shadows pooling along the baseboards. The dog's dark eyes and black nose stand out against the stark white fur, while its ears fold softly against the sides of its head. The minimalist composition isolates the animal against the uncluttered background, showing the specific texture of its double coat and the precise shape of its muzzle. A thin reflection of the overhead fixture glints on the polished floor near the rug edge.
