EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, circa 1880s, showcases two White Carrier Cocks in their full regal splendor. The foreground figure stands proudly with a slender, long body and a neck that accentuates its large, expressive eyes. The irises of the birds' eyes are particularly noteworthy, displaying a striking contrast against their dark pupils. The nostrils of these birds, known as the cere, are also prominent, adding to their distinctive appearance. The White Carrier Cock is one of the oldest English fancy breeds of pigeon, with a rich history dating back centuries. Originally bred for their exceptional homing abilities, these birds were highly valued as messengers due to their capacity to fly long distances with remarkable precision. In the background, a second White Carrier Cock can be seen nesting, adding a sense of depth and authenticity to the image. The intricate details of their plumage, from their glossy feathers to the fine texture of their feet and tarsus, are beautifully captured in this detailed, full-length portrait. The White Carrier Cock is a true testament to the beauty and history of the pigeon world. Its large, intelligent eyes and distinctive features make it a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts of rare and exotic birds. This portrait offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of these remarkable creatures and the role they played in history as valued messengers and beloved companions.
