EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of an Andalusian Cock and Hen, a noble and ancient breed of poultry with a rich history. The image, taken in 1919, transports us back in time to a simpler era, where the connection between humans and their livestock was more intimate. The Andalusian, also known as the Spanish Fighting Cock, is a breed that originated in Spain and was highly prized for its aggressive fighting instincts. Despite their combative reputation, Andalusian Cocks and Hens were also valued for their striking appearance. The rooster is depicted in the photograph with a proud and regal demeanor, displaying his vibrant, red comb and wattles, and his glossy, black and green feathers. The hen, standing beside him, is equally beautiful, with her golden feathers adorned with intricate black lacing. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, when Andalusian Cocks and Hens were kept not just for their meat or eggs, but also for their role in cockfighting, a popular pastime in many cultures. The practice, which dates back to ancient Rome, was believed to have therapeutic and spiritual significance, and was often seen as a symbol of status and wealth. Today, the Andalusian breed is less common, with numbers dwindling due to changing attitudes towards cockfighting and the rise of industrial poultry farming. This photograph serves as a reminder of the breed's rich history and the important role it once played in the lives of people. It is a testament to the enduring bond between humans and animals, and the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
