EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph showcases a stunning comparison of two distinctive duck species: the Carolina Duck, Aix sponsa, and the Mandarin Duck, Aix galericulata. The image, created by J.W. Ludlow and published by Vincent Brooks Day & Son in 1890, is an exquisite reproduction from Lewis Wright's The Illustrated Book of Poultry. The Victorian era was a time of great fascination with exotic and rare breeds, and these ducks were no exception. The Carolina Duck, also known as the Redhead or Red-breasted Merganser, is native to North America, with striking black and red plumage. The Mandarin Duck, originating from East India and China, is renowned for its vibrant, intricately patterned plumage, which includes a distinctive white crescent moon on its back. Matthew Lenos, the proud owner of these celebrated prize pens, is depicted in the illustration, showcasing the ducks' impressive features. The Cayuga, Rubripes, and Sainsbury ducks, also present in the image, were popular breeds during the hen craze of the late 19th century. The ducks were often kept for ornamental purposes, as well as for game and sport, such as cockfighting, which was prevalent during that time. The image, with its rich colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the world of duck breeding and ornithology during the Victorian era. The chromolithograph, produced by the renowned Vincent Brooks Day & Son, showcases the beauty and diversity of these birds, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of historical animal illustrations.
