EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph captures the beauty and elegance of Black East India ducks and black Cayuga ducks. The image, originally illustrated by J. W. Ludlow in Lewis Wright's "The Illustrated Book of Poultry" showcases these exquisite birds with their striking plumage. The Black East India duck, scientifically known as Anas platyrhynchos, was a notable breed that won the prestigious cup at Bristol in 1872 under the ownership of G. S. Sainsbury. These ducks were highly sought after for their unique appearance and were considered exotic game birds during the Victorian era. Accompanying them are black Cayuga ducks, sent all the way from New York by Mr. Simpson himself. These stunning creatures add an extra touch of allure to this already mesmerizing print. Both breeds exhibit remarkable features that make them stand out among other poultry species. Their dark feathers create a dramatic contrast against their surroundings, making them true showstoppers in any setting. This artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also provides insight into the world of ornithology and poultry breeding during its time. It is a testament to humanity's fascination with nature's wonders and our desire to capture its beauty through art. Whether you're an avid bird enthusiast or simply appreciate fine art, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you back to a time when these magnificent creatures reigned supreme in hen craze culture.
