EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century wood engraving from The Granger Collection showcases a fascinating array of swine breeds. Each distinct image represents a different type of pig, providing an intriguing glimpse into the diversity of these animals during that era. Starting with A) Wild Boar, we see a powerful and untamed creature embodying the essence of its species. Moving on to B), an old unimproved breed is depicted, showcasing the characteristics that were prevalent before selective breeding practices became widespread. C) introduces us to a black or wire-haired breed, displaying its unique coat texture and coloration. D) presents a boar from the improved breed - evidence of human intervention in shaping certain traits for desired outcomes. E) captures the heartwarming sight of a sow and her young ones belonging to the improved breed, highlighting their nurturing instincts and familial bonds. F) brings forth the Suffolk breed with its distinctive appearance and features. Lastly, G) reveals an intriguing Chinese breed, perhaps hinting at cross-cultural influences in livestock development during this period. This historic print serves as both an educational tool and artistic representation of swine diversity in the 19th century. It invites viewers to appreciate not only the aesthetic value but also ponder upon our relationship with domesticated animals throughout history.
