EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured steel engraving by Lizars, after an illustration by James Stewart, depicts a Leicester ram, Ovis aries, an endangered breed of domestic sheep. The image is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library, published in Edinburgh in 1836. The Leicester ram is a large, powerful animal with distinctive curved horns and a dense, woolly coat. The breed originated in Leicestershire, England, and was prized for its high-quality wool, which was fine, soft, and uniform in texture. However, the Leicester breed has faced significant challenges in recent decades. The demand for intensive farming and industrialization led to the decline of traditional breeds like the Leicester, as they were often replaced by more productive and uniform breeds. Additionally, the breed's large size and wooly coat made it less suitable for modern farming practices, which prioritize efficiency and ease of handling. As a result, the Leicester breed has become endangered, with numbers declining significantly in the 20th century. This engraving serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving rare and heritage breeds like the Leicester, which not only have historical and cultural significance but also contribute to the rich diversity of the natural world. The intricate details of the engraving showcase the beauty and uniqueness of this magnificent animal, and serve as a testament to the skill of the artist and the craftsmanship of the printmakers of the time.
