EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and elegance of the endangered Creve-coeur breed chickens, a rare French breed originating from Crevecoeur-en-Auge in Normandy. Bred by R.B. Wood, these magnificent birds have won first prizes at prestigious shows in Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Spalding, and Chesterfield back in 1872.
The intricate details of the cock and hen depicted in this chromolithograph showcase their unique features that set them apart from other breeds. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns on their feathers make them truly stand out as show birds.
As we admire this illustration from the Victorian era, created by Vincent Brooks Day for Lewis Wright's "The Illustrated Book of Poultry" published by Cassell in 1890, we are reminded of the importance of preserving rare breeds like the Creve-coeur to ensure their survival for future generations to appreciate.
This image serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage associated with poultry breeding and ornithology. It is a testament to human ingenuity and dedication to preserving biodiversity in our world.
Let us cherish and protect these beautiful creatures so that they may continue to grace our lives with their presence for years to come.
