EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Combat de coqs" showcases a thrilling cockfighting scene from the 19th century. Created by an unknown French artist, this artwork is part of a private collection and was featured in the renowned Dictionnaire Populaire Illustre by Decembre-Alonnier around 1880. The illustration depicts two fierce roosters engaged in a heated battle within a cock pit. The intensity of their confrontation is palpable as they clash against each other with feathers flying and beaks poised for combat. This ancient sport, rooted in gambling and entertainment, has long been associated with both excitement and controversy. As we delve into this historical piece, we are transported to an era where such spectacles were widely popular across Europe, including England (Great Britain). Cockfights served as not only a form of amusement but also as an opportunity for gamblers to place bets on their favored birds. Through this print's intricate details and masterful craftsmanship, we gain insight into the cultural significance of cockfighting during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of how sports can reflect societal values while simultaneously raising ethical questions about animal welfare. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork from Fine Art Finder's vast collection, allowing us to appreciate its historical context and artistic merit today.
