EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a Partridge Cochin Cock, a breed of domestic fowl that was the epitome of Victorian poultry fancying. The Partridge Cochin Cock, scientifically known as Gallus gallus domesticus, was a popular exhibit at poultry shows during the late 19th century. This particular specimen, with its vibrant partridge plumage and distinctive Dorking-style comb, won first prizes at both the Birmingham Exhibition in 1870 and the Kendal Show in 1871. The image is based on an illustration by J.W. Ludlow, taken from Lewis Wright's The Illustrated Book of Poultry, published by Cassell in London in 1890. The book was part of a craze for ornithology and exotic breeding during the Victorian era. The Partridge Cochin Cock was not only admired for its appearance but also for its potential as a game bird. However, it's important to note that the practice of cockfighting, which was popular during this time, is now considered cruel and inhumane. The chromolithograph was produced by Vincent Brooks Day & Son, a leading publisher of high-quality prints during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The intricate detail and vivid colors of this print showcase the skill and artistry of the lithographers and the illustrator. The Partridge Cochin Cock remains an iconic symbol of the Victorian obsession with poultry breeding and the exotic, and this print is a beautiful reminder of that era.
