Thread hijack, but it is the lounge!

Have they recovered "Scream", that is the real name, since it was stolen a year or 2 ago?

What is up with Shelly having two chiclets? Shelly is the voice of reason and sanity. Two chiclets is an abomination. Seriously.

some more dachshund art work:


The B!tches of Paradise
Artist: Bernardo Bartolini 54 x 48, oil on canvas c. 1608
The Renaissance saw the emergence of the "chunkified" wiener dog in the style of the seventeenth-century Baroque art. Here, we see one such piece by Bernardo Bartolini (although he apparently preferred to sign his works with an informal "Bernie"). In 1612, Bernardo was commissioned to do a wiener dog fresco for King Giovanni D'Amento IV. Unfortunately, a revolt, led by a small clique of art critics, dethroned Giovanni - and Bernardo was arrested before he could begin his work. Giovanni was beheaded, and Bernardo was slapped around for a good five minutes and then released.


Wiener Dog with Head Turned
Artist: Pablo Picasso? 26x24, oil on canvas 1954
This is one of the more controversial works in this section. In 1986, this painting went on the auction block and a Japanese collector paid $38 million for what he believed was one of Picasso's startling interpretations of the wiener dog. Shortly thereafter, however, several experts came forth to challenge the painting's authenticity. New estimates now place the work's value somewhere between $14 and $22, most of that amount being attributed to the nice frame.


Bottle, Apple, Book, and Bowl of Wiener Dogs
Artist: Unknown 36 x 32, watercolor 1946
The wiener dog, especially in postwar Europe, was a frequent subject for still-life artists, almost to the point of cliche. Bowls of wiener dogs, baskets of wiener dogs, tubs of wiener dogs, dried wiener dogs, stuffed wiener dogs, and a myriad of other variations on this theme represented a quirky but strong artisitic trend for seven and a half years. And then it stopped.


Runaways
Artist: Samuel L. Sullivan 28 x 22, oil on canvas 1896
In the latter part of the nineteenth century, weiner dogs were brought West in great herds by the backing of wealthy "wiener barons." These drives were occasionally enormous in scale, sometimes consisting of well over half a billion animals. There are two major routes (or "Wiener Trails") across the country, one starting in Boston and ending in San Francisco, the other starting in Chicago, circling that city several times (for greater momentum), dropping down to Dallas, back to Chicago (usually an error), down into New Mexico, and ending in what was then called Wienerville, Arizona (now an uninhabited area but nenowned for its rich topsoil).


The Persistence of Wiener Dogs
Artist: Salador Dali? 24 x 20, oil on canvas c. 1938
We have no conclusive proof that this is indeed the work of Salvador Dali, but we're pretty sure. The signature on the painting, believed to be a pseudonym, is actually "Labrador Dali," but most experts recognize (reluctantly) the unique stamp of the famous Spanish surrealist.


The Whine
Artist: Edward Munch? 18 x 28, oil on canvas 1891
Once again, we have here a work in which the creator's identity technically remains a mystery, but whose disturbing, provocative use of the wiener dog practically screams, "Edvard, you veirdo you!"
This painting, along with a handful of other works by various artists, was stolen several years ago from one of New York's pretty good art museums. The brazen theft was a devatating blow to the art community. Interestingly enough, however, the very next day this particular painting was returned, found leaning against one of the museum's outside walls. According to the museum's curator at the time, the loss of all the works was an extreme offense, "but the return of 'The Whine' was absolutely the last straw."

It is all Gary Larson, they were in the forward of one of his books. Too tired to go to my "library" for reference. :cool:
