EDITORS COMMENTS
A Vibrant Spectacle of Feathered Delights: Poultry Show at the Crystal Palace, December 1870 Step into the magical world of the Poultry Show at the Crystal Palace, an enchanting event that took place in the heart of London during the winter of 1870. This photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and excitement of this Victorian-era spectacle. The Crystal Palace, an architectural marvel of its time, played host to this annual event, which saw above 1100 pens filled with an impressive array of fowls, turkeys, ducks, geese, and pheasants. The large, ornate cages and pens were a sight to behold, each one showcasing the finest specimens of each bird breed. The Poultry Show was a much-anticipated event, attracting bird enthusiasts, farmers, and even the nobility. It was a time for buying, selling, and admiring the beautiful, colorful creatures. The atmosphere was filled with a palpable sense of excitement and anticipation, as attendees marveled at the various breeds and their unique characteristics. As the holiday season approached, the Poultry Show took on an added significance. These birds were not just prized for their beauty, but also for their role in providing a bountiful Christmas dinner. The turkeys, with their gleaming, plump feathers, and the ducks and geese, with their sleek, iridescent plumage, were all destined to become the centerpiece of many a Victorian feast. This photograph captures the essence of the Poultry Show at the Crystal Palace in December 1870, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past and the rich history of bird keeping and exhibition in the 19th century.
