EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CATTLE BREEDS, 1856" takes us back to the middle of the 19th century, showcasing three distinct breeds of cattle. The wood engravings, created by French artists in 1856, beautifully depict a hornless Angus bull, a Guernsey cow, and a Kerry cow from Ireland. The image transports us to an era when farming and livestock played vital roles in sustaining communities. It serves as a fascinating glimpse into the world of zoology and animal breeding during that time period. The majestic hornless Angus bull stands tall with its muscular frame and sleek coat. Its presence exudes strength and power. Next to it is the elegant Guernsey cow, known for its distinctive reddish-brown coat adorned with white markings. Its gentle eyes seem to reflect docility and grace. Lastly, we have the Irish Kerry cow - an embodiment of hardiness and resilience. With its thick black coat protecting it from harsh weather conditions on the Emerald Isle, this breed has long been cherished by farmers for their adaptability. This remarkable engraving captures not only the physical characteristics but also highlights cultural significance associated with each breed. It reminds us of our deep connection with nature's bounty throughout history. As we admire this historical piece from The Granger Collection's archives, let us appreciate how far we've come in understanding livestock breeding techniques while cherishing these magnificent creatures that continue to play crucial roles in our lives today.
