Christopher Wood painted China Dogs in a St Ives Window during his stay in the Cornish fishing village of St Ives in 1926.

The painting represents a pivotal moment in the artist's career, bringing together the influence of the Post- Impressionist art he had observed in Paris with his interest in the Celtic folk culture of Cornwall.
