EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a trio of exquisitely adorned fancy pigeons, each representing unique and distinct breeds: the Red Helmet, the Yellow Spot, and the Black Lahore. The Red Helmet, with its plain-headed profile, proudly displays its bicoloured plumage, a stunning combination of red and white feathers. To the right, the Yellow Spot pigeon boasts similar colouration, but its most distinctive feature is the bright yellow spot adorning its forehead. The Black Lahore, originating from Pakistan, is significantly larger in size and boasts unusual markings. Its most striking features are the dark colouration on its head and neck, which sets it apart from other pigeon breeds. This photograph, believed to date back to the 1880s, offers a glimpse into the rich history of fancy pigeon breeding. The Red Helmet, White-headed Columba livia, and the Black Lahore, a variety of the Columba livia species, were popular choices among collectors and enthusiasts during this era. The Yellow Spot, also known as the Columba livia domestica, was also a sought-after breed due to its distinctive head marking. The intricate detailing of their feathers, from the Red Helmet's plumage formation to the Black Lahore's unusual head markings, is a testament to the dedication and passion of the breeders who meticulously cared for these birds. The pigeons' eyes, with their expressive irises, add a sense of life and personality to this image. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the diversity and rich history of the pigeon world, offering a glimpse into the past and the unique characteristics and features that continue to captivate bird enthusiasts today.
