EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, showcases a vibrant and intriguing scene of peacocks and peahens in their natural habitat. The image, captured by an unidentified photographer and now part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to an era when these magnificent birds were a source of fascination and admiration. The photograph features two peacocks, one perched casually on a bough, letting its tail droop gracefully, while the other puts on an extravagant display, spreading its iridescent train in a mesmerizing show of courtship. The peacocks, scientifically known as Pavo cristatus, are renowned for their stunning plumage, which is a riot of colors, from deep blues and greens to golden hues. In the foreground, a peahen, the female counterpart of the peacock, is shown with a curious expression, observing the male's display with interest. Peahens are usually brownish-green in color and have a less extravagant appearance than their male counterparts. The other peahens in the photograph are seen pecking at the ground for food, their heads bobbing up and down in a rhythmic motion. Peacocks and peahens have been revered for their beauty and symbolic significance in various cultures throughout history. In ancient India, they were considered sacred birds, and their feathers were used in religious ceremonies and royal attire. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a fascinating insight into the lives of these beautiful and enigmatic birds.
