The print showcases an array of exquisite avian specimens that were exhibited during this grand event. Intricately detailed, the engraving allows us to marvel at the beauty and diversity of these ornamental waterfowl. Egyptian geese with their striking plumage stand proudly alongside vibrant Mandarin ducks, creating a stunning visual spectacle. Whistlers add their melodious tunes to the atmosphere while captivating onlookers. The Poultry Show was not only an opportunity for enthusiasts like Mr. Reginald B Astley and Mrs. J W Dick to showcase their prized birds but also served as a platform for breeders like Mr. P F Fordham to exchange knowledge and expertise in poultry breeding.
