EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the enchanting world of carrier pigeons and their vital role in communication during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image, titled "Enlargement of a message carried by a pigeon" showcases an intricate Liebig card from a series dedicated to homing pigeons. The print depicts an enlarged view of a message delicately tied to the leg of a majestic pigeon. With its vibrant colors and meticulous details, this artwork brings to life the fascinating intersection between technology, animals, and human ingenuity. Intriguingly, this piece hints at the innovative methods employed in communicating through carrier pigeons. A projector screen looms in the background, suggesting that these messages were not only written but also projected for easier reading or decoding. The tooth-billed pigeon featured here exudes grace as it carries out its crucial task amidst other sea birds and fowls. This composition serves as a reminder of how wildlife played an integral part in historical advancements. As we admire this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of the immense impact that these feathered messengers had on shaping our understanding of communications technology. They symbolize resilience and adaptability while showcasing nature's undeniable beauty.
