EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century transports us back to a bustling London street, where an unusual sight unfolds before our eyes. The scene captures the daily routine of Pyrenean goats being driven through the city, their presence drawing a curious crowd of onlookers. Published in the Illustrated London News on June 10,1882, this print offers a glimpse into a bygone era when livestock played unexpected roles in urban life. As we delve deeper into the image, we witness men and women engaged in their respective trades as street vendors. Amongst them are these diligent goat herders who have ventured all the way from Pyrenees to sell their precious milk to eager customers. The goats themselves stand tall and proud amidst the chaos of London's streets, seemingly unfazed by their surroundings. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical details but also conveys a sense of liveliness and energy within this snapshot of everyday life. It serves as a reminder that professions come in all shapes and sizes – even those involving pyrenean goats! Preserved within this private collection, this enchanting piece continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance and artistic beauty. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts in preserving such treasures like this one, we can still appreciate moments frozen in time that offer glimpses into our rich cultural heritage.
