His Master's Voice
"His Master's Voice" is a famous trademark and logo featuring a dog named Nipper listening to a phonograph. The image was created in the late 19th century and symbolizes the bond between music and the listener. It was originally painted by artist Francis Barraud in 1898, inspired by his own experiences with Nipper, who would listen intently to recordings of his deceased owner’s voice.
The logo became associated with the Victor Talking Machine Company, which later merged with RCA. It has since been used by various music labels and is recognized worldwide, representing the early days of recorded sound and the emotional connection to music.
