"Goodbye" is an evocative etching by the English artist Herbert Thomas Dicksee (1862–1942), renowned for his portrayals of animals, particularly dogs and big cats. Created in 1918, this piece is one of Dicksee's most poignant works, capturing a deeply emotional moment between a dog and a British soldier during World War I. The etching is emblematic of Dicksee's mastery in rendering the texture of fur and the expression of sentiment in his animal subjects, which garnered him considerable acclaim during his career.

The artwork depicts a farewell scene, where a soldier is seen leaning against a wall, his head bowed down, suggesting a heavy heart as he prepares to depart for the battlefront. At his side, a dog—often interpreted as a faithful companion—looks up at him with an expression of concern and loyalty, adding a layer of poignancy to the scene. The interaction between the two figures is rendered with delicate lines and a keen attention to detail, characteristic of Dicksee's etching technique.

"Goodbye" resonates with the collective consciousness of its time, reflecting the widespread experience of separation and loss felt by many families during the war. The etching serves not only as a testament to Dicksee's artistic skill but also as a historical document that captures the emotional gravity of the era. The artwork remains a touching example of the bond between humans and animals, and it continues to be appreciated by audiences for its emotional depth and technical finesse.

Herbert Thomas Dicksee's "Goodbye" is held in various art collections and has been exhibited in numerous galleries, contributing to the enduring legacy of the artist's work. The piece is also a subject of interest for collectors of war memorabilia and enthusiasts of fine etchings.
