EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Illustrated London News, dated 1862, showcases a selection of prize animals that graced the Royal Agricultural Society's show held in Battersea Park. The image highlights a diverse array of livestock, each boasting exceptional qualities that earned them recognition in their respective classes. At the forefront is Lablache, a Berkshire boar, once owned by the late Sir Robert G. Throckmorton. Bred by Mr. Mitchell of Iver Lodge, this impressive boar was a force to be reckoned with in the show ring. Next to Lablache is a foreshortened sow, representing Mr. Wainman's celebrated Silverwing, the victor in the small white breed's sow class. The splendid Clydesdale sire, Sir Walter Scott, owned by the Duke of Hamilton and Brandon, is depicted in all his glory. Among the prize animals is Napoleon, the winning pony sire under 14 hands and above 12½ hands at his side, a dappled dun of the Welsh breed. Mr. Booth's star, Queen of the Ocean, shines brightly in the image, while Lady Pigot, known for her competitive nature with her cows, came in second place. Mr. James Davy's Devon gold medallist, Duke of Flitton, made a significant impact at the show, securing four firsts and a second place against himself, in addition to earning two gold medals. The image encapsulates the spirit of competition and the pride taken in the livestock industry during this era.
