"Count de Choiseul's Greyhounds" is a painting by the renowned French artist Gustave Courbet, created in 1866. This work of art exemplifies Courbet's skill in animal portraiture and reflects his interest in capturing the essence of his subjects with realism and vitality. The painting depicts a pair of greyhounds belonging to Count Étienne de Choiseul, showcasing Courbet's attention to detail and his ability to convey the physical characteristics and the noble demeanor of the dogs.

Gustave Courbet (1819–1877) was a pivotal figure in the 19th-century French art movement known as Realism, and he is best known for his commitment to painting only what he could see. His approach was in stark contrast to the Romantic and Neoclassical styles that dominated the period. Courbet's works often portrayed everyday scenes and common people, and he occasionally extended this realism to the animal genre, as seen in "Count de Choiseul's Greyhounds."

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. During the 19th century, the depiction of animals in art was a popular subject, often symbolizing various human attributes or social statuses. In this case, the greyhounds can be interpreted as a symbol of the aristocracy and the refined leisure activities associated with the upper classes.

"Count de Choiseul's Greyhounds" is a testament to Courbet's mastery of form and his ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of presence and life. It remains an important work within Courbet's oeuvre and contributes to our understanding of the broader scope of Realist art. The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic qualities and its representation of Courbet's realist philosophy.
