EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back to a time when international exhibitions were grand spectacles of cultural exchange. Titled "Foreign Wool-bearing Animals at the International Exhibition" this print showcases an array of fascinating creatures that were showcased in London during that era. The image is filled with fat, tailed animals representing different breeds and species. Among them, we can spot a majestic cashmere goat, its luxurious wool flowing gracefully. Merino rams stand proudly beside them, their dense fleece promising warmth and comfort. The scene also includes moufflons, sheep known for their wild appearance and impressive horns. Llamas and huanaco add an exotic touch to the display, while alpacas contribute their soft and silky fibers to the mix. This engraving transports us back in time to witness a moment when livestock exhibitions were not only about showcasing these remarkable animals but also celebrating the diversity of wool production from around the world. Preserved in a private collection today, this artwork was originally featured in The Graphic on June 3rd, 1871. Its intricate details capture both the beauty of these foreign wool-bearing creatures and the historical significance of such international gatherings. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts through Fine Art Finder platform, we can still admire this piece today as a testament to our fascination with nature's wonders throughout history.
