Whilst there's not much femininity on show in Dane, there is still so much to be read into the beguiling illustration created by illustrator Gabriele Pennacchioli. The power which the Great Dane is demonstrating in this illustration makes it almost baffling to question why the anonymous female subject is clinging on for control.
No matter how much determination the dog has in its eyes, it's no match for the strength that is being depicted in the struggle for control. That's all that life is really isn't it? A fight for power and control whilst it may seem like the woman is losing the battle, she's not losing the war considering the fact she's making no bones about attempting to reclaim her power and control over the situation. Perhaps we have a lot to learn from Gabriele's illustration.
