J.W. Ludlow, Vincent Brooks Day & Son Lithograph, Cassell's Poultry Book
A striking 19th century chromolithograph from Cassell's Poultry Book, depicting “Miss Fairhurst’s Pair of White Dorkings,” a prize-winning poultry pair that took first prize at Colchester in 1873. Illustrated by J. W. Ludlow, whose work is celebrated for its anatomical accuracy and lifelike portrayal of poultry breeds, this print was lithographed by Vincent Brooks Day & Son, one of the most esteemed British lithographic firms of the Victorian era. The piece is professionally matted and housed in a giltwood frame with a wired back for hanging. The visible plate text confirms its authenticity and historical reference to the poultry breeding achievements of the time.
