Cochinchina Cock and Hens in a Farmyard
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite handcoloured lithograph taken from Carl Hoffmann's renowned publication, "The Book of the World," published in Stuttgart in 1857. This image showcases a group of Cochin chickens, a popular breed originating from Cochinchina, an ancient name for southern Vietnam. The Cochin cock, proudly displayed in the center, boasts a voluminous plumage, with feathers cascading down his back and tail. His vibrant, iridescent plumage is a testament to the breed's distinctive beauty. The hens, gathered around him, exhibit their full, round bodies and fluffy feathers, reflecting their reputation for being excellent layers of large, brown eggs. The farmyard setting adds to the charm of the image, with the chickens surrounded by lush vegetation and a serene, rural atmosphere. The intricate details of the scene, from the individual feathers on the birds to the textures of the foliage, are a testament to the skill of the lithographer. This illustration was produced during a time when educational publications like "The Book of the World" played a significant role in documenting and disseminating knowledge about the natural world. The inclusion of the Cochinchina cock and hens in this collection highlights the global reach and curiosity of European audiences towards exotic breeds and far-off lands. The handcoloured lithograph process, which involved the meticulous application of watercolour pigments onto a lithographic plate, adds an additional layer of depth and richness to the image. The result is a stunning, visually appealing representation of these fascinating birds in their farmyard environment. Overall, "Cochinchina Cock and Hens in a Farmyard" is an enchanting and historically significant image that showcases the beauty of the Cochin breed and the artistry of the lithographic process. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of poultry farming during the mid-19th century.
