EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Prize Poultry, etc, at the Zoological Societys Gardens" takes us back to the enchanting atmosphere of the 19th century. The image showcases a diverse array of magnificent birds and farm animals that were proudly exhibited in one of London's most renowned gardens. In this bustling scene, we are introduced to an assortment of remarkable creatures that have captured the attention of both visitors and enthusiasts alike. From elegant Aylesbury ducks to regal turkeys and even a wild turkey, each animal stands as a testament to their breeders' dedication and expertise. Amongst them, notable figures such as Mr. Thompson with his Irish goose, Mr. Jamrach with his black carrier pigeon, and Mr. Baker with his chickens can be spotted conversing about their prized possessions. Meanwhile, Leighton pigeons gracefully soar above them while Clapperton partridges roam freely nearby. The composition is filled with life as various species coexist harmoniously within this vibrant ecosystem. Oronoco geese waddle alongside old Sussex fowls while Malay fowls strut confidently beside Kent FCWLS representatives. Through this meticulously detailed engraving by English School artists for The Illustrated London News in 1847, we catch a glimpse into the fascination society held for these beautiful creatures during that era. It serves as a reminder not only of our historical connection to wildlife but also highlights humanity's enduring admiration for nature's wonders.
