The Cattle Show at Islington, Some of the Prize-Winners
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant scene from an agricultural show in 19th century London. This detailed engraving by Alfred Chantrey Corbould showcases a diverse range of livestock and celebrates the achievements of their proud owners. In the foreground, we see several prize-winning cattle representing different breeds such as Sussex, Oxfordshire Down, Scotch Polled, and Kentish. These magnificent animals stand tall with their well-groomed coats and impressive horns. Among them are also fat wethers, heifers, and cows that have caught the judges' attention. Moving towards the center of the image, we encounter a group of pigs displaying their unique characteristics. The variety is evident here too – Scotch Highland breed stands out with its shaggy coat while small black breeds add contrast to this lively display. The background reveals more scenes from this bustling event. Sheep belonging to Romney Marsh breed and Dorset breed graze peacefully alongside oxen representing Suffolk Polled breed. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as farmers proudly present their extra stock Shorthorn and Hereford steers for evaluation. This engraving not only highlights the beauty of these prized animals but also pays tribute to the dedication and hard work put in by farmers who strive for excellence in breeding livestock. It serves as a testament to the importance of agricultural shows like these in promoting advancements in farming practices during that era.
