The Borzoi, known for its elegance and majesty, has a fascinating history spanning centuries of evolution. Born as a noble hunting dog in the Russian steppes, the Borzoi has adapted to new contexts while maintaining its essence as an agile predator and becoming an icon of elegance.
This study, enriched by the contributions of Yvonne McGehee, delves into the origins and evolution of the Borzoi, highlighting the importance of iconography as a historical record. Prints and photographs capture its morphological and cultural evolution.
An exclusive interview with Tariel Varlamovich Gabidzashvili, a leading figure in the Borzoi world, offers a unique perspective. Gabidzashvili, with more than 40 years of experience as a breeder and significant roles in Russian canine associations, has profoundly influenced the breed’s conservation and progress.
This work offers a comprehensive view of the Borzoi, celebrating its beauty and importance in the global canine scene.
