- Lot Description
Richard Chashoudian (1931-2012)
Gordon Retriever, 1988
signed and numbered "#1 Ric Chashoudian" on base
bronze, 10 1/4 by 16 3/4 by 9 in.
inscribed "CH. BRAWRIDGE TNT OF KRIS" on base
Ric Chashoudian was a larger-than-life figure in the dog world. Born in California, Chashoudian was drawn to dog shows as a boy. He had a long and storied career as a breeder, handler, and judge, and also served in the Army for two years during the Korean War.
Fernandez notes in an article about Chashoudian, "In the late '70s Ric's combined skills as a trimmer, breeder, and judge set the stage for his next career as a sculptor. He did countless bronzes on commission that are now in private art collections all over the world. A few of his notable works included a life-size bronze of Barney for the Presidential Pet museum. He also sculpted The Katrina Survivors, a life-size cat and dog perched on a barn door, now displayed at the New Orleans City Hall."
The Gordon setter depicted in this bronze is Ch. Brawridge TNT of Kris, who was the top Gordon setter for 1988, 1989, and 1990, and the number-one Sporting Dog in 1988. TNT was owned by Charles Mann and R. L. Christianson.
