EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph from 1890 showcases a stunning silver-grey Dorking hen, a prized breed of Gallus gallus domesticus. Bred by the esteemed O. F. Cresswell, this particular hen was not only a first prize winner at Ashford but also claimed second prize at Birmingham in 1872. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the print bring to life the exquisite plumage of this Victorian-era show bird. Created by J. W. Ludlow and reproduced by Vincent Brooks Day & Son, this illustration is taken from Lewis Wright's renowned book, "The Illustrated Book of Poultry". It offers an enchanting glimpse into the world of poultry breeding during that time period when there was a craze for ornithology and exotic game birds. The silver-grey Dorking hen stands proudly in all its regal beauty, showcasing its distinctive features and elegant form. Its presence evokes images of cockfighting arenas and the excitement surrounding these competitive games. As we admire this remarkable piece, we are transported back to an era where "hen fever" gripped society, with enthusiasts passionately engaging in poultry-related activities as both players and spectators. This print serves as a testament to the enduring allure of these magnificent creatures throughout history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this valuable snapshot from our past, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic skill behind it but also its cultural significance within the realm of Victorian-era poultry breeding.
