EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a Pyrenean woman force-feeding a goose in the Basque region of France, circa 1910s. The woman, dressed in traditional attire, holds a funnel filled with corn or maize in one hand, while using the other to force the food down the goose's gullet. The goose's neck is pinned back, and its eyes are wide with distress. This scene was once a common practice in the Pyrenees Mountains, where the force-feeding of geese was used to produce foie gras, a delicacy made from the expanded, fattened liver of the bird. The process, known as gavage in French, was a labor-intensive and controversial method that raised ethical concerns regarding animal welfare. Despite its rich cultural history and culinary significance, the production of foie gras has been the subject of much debate and criticism in recent decades. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, showcasing the raw and unfiltered realities of rural life in the Pyrenees.
