EDITORS COMMENTS
Varieties of Game Bantams Bred by W.F. Entwistle: A Celebration of Victorian Poultry Breeding Excellence This chromolithograph, produced by Vincent Brooks Day & Son after an illustration by J.W. Ludlow for Lewis Wright's The Illustrated Book of Poultry (1890), showcases an impressive collection of game bantams bred by the renowned breeder W.F. Entwistle. The image features five distinct varieties of bantams that Entwistle had successfully cultivated: Brown Reds, Black Reds, Duckwings, and Piles. The Brown Reds, depicted in the foreground, were the first prize winners at the Leeds poultry show in 1886. Their rich, chestnut-brown plumage and elegant posture exude a sense of regal beauty. The Black Reds, displayed in the middle, were the cup winners at Windsor in 1886. Their striking contrast of black feathers against the red earlobes and shanks adds to their allure. The Duckwings, shown in the upper left corner, were the cup winners at Windsor in 1885. Their unique feathering resembles that of a duck, making them a popular and exotic addition to any poultry collection. The Piles, displayed in the upper right corner, were the cup winners at Birmingham in 1885. Their distinctive, upright tail feathers and vibrant plumage make them a true standout in the world of poultry. This stunning image offers a glimpse into the Victorian hen craze, a period marked by an obsession with breeding and exhibiting exotic poultry varieties. The ornithological detail captured in this chromolithograph is a testament to the dedication and passion of breeders like W.F. Entwistle, who contributed significantly to the development and appreciation of various game bantam breeds.
