EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating glimpse into the world of livestock in the mid-19th century. The image features two magnificent animals, a Prize Hereford heifer and a cross-bred ox, both exuding an air of strength and majesty. The Hereford heifer takes center stage on the left side of the engraving. With its sleek coat and proud stance, it represents the epitome of breeding excellence. Its muscular build suggests years of careful selection to achieve this remarkable specimen. The intricate details captured by the wood engraving technique highlight every contour and texture, making it almost lifelike. Standing beside the heifer is an equally impressive cross-bred ox with its imposing horns curving gracefully upwards. This majestic creature embodies power and resilience, showcasing traits that have been carefully bred over generations. The English origins of this print are evident in its refined composition and attention to detail. It serves as a testament to England's rich history in animal husbandry during this period. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from The Granger Collection, we are transported back in time to witness these prized animals at their finest moment – frozen forever in this exquisite wood engraving.
