The Distinguished Black Dutch White-Crested Chicken - Rare 19th Century Poultry
Located in Langweer, NL
The Distinguished Black Dutch White-Crested Chicken A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This striking 19th century chromolithograph showcases a pair of Black Dutch White-Crested chickens, an ornamental breed admired for its elegant black plumage, dramatic white crest, and refined posture. The print, titled Zwarte Hollandsche Witkuiven, originates from Geïllustreerd Hoenderboek, an Illustrated Poultry Book published in 1888 by Elsevier. Compiled by Julius Volschau and adapted for Dutch readers by Dr. A. C. Oudemans Jzn., this book provided an extensive study of poultry breeding, highlighting both practical and decorative breeds that were highly valued in the 19th century. The White-Crested Black Dutch chicken is closely related to the Polish breed, sharing its distinctive feathered crest but with a stronger historical connection to the Netherlands. These birds were particularly favored for their striking contrast of jet black plumage and a full, bright white crest, making them highly desirable for ornamental poultry collections. The breed was known for its calm nature, excellent foraging ability, and consistent white egg production. This lithograph was produced using chromolithography, a highly detailed 19th century printing technique that allowed for richly colored and finely rendered illustrations. The artwork is based on an original drawing by Christian Förster, a renowned animal illustrator of the time. Chromolithographs were created by layering multiple colors, each applied with a separate stone plate, ensuring depth and realism in the final print. The intricate feather detailing and dramatic contrast between the birds' black bodies and snowy white crests in this print highlight the craftsmanship involved in this technique. Condition Summary The print remains in very good condition, with well preserved colors and intricate details. Some minor age related toning and light foxing spots are visible, particularly along the edges, which is common in lithographs of this period. The paper remains stable, with minimal signs of wear, making this an excellent collectible piece for antique poultry print...

Located in Langweer, NL
The Distinguished Spanish Chicken A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This striking 19th century chromolithograph features a pair of Spanish chickens, a distinguished breed known for its sleek black plumage, prominent white facial patches, and regal bearing. The print, titled Spanjaarden, originates from Geïllustreerd Hoenderboek, an Illustrated Poultry Book published in 1888 by Elsevier. Compiled by Julius Volschau and adapted for Dutch readers by Dr. A. C. Oudemans Jzn., this book provided detailed insights into poultry breeding, selection, and care, reflecting the great interest in specialized breeds during the 19th century. The Spanish chicken, often referred to as the White Faced Black Spanish, is one of the oldest Mediterranean poultry breeds. It is believed to have been developed in Spain before being refined in England during the 18th and 19th centuries. This breed is best recognized for its glossy black feathers, bright red comb, and large white earlobes and facial skin, giving it a striking contrast that made it highly desirable for exhibition purposes. Spanish chickens were prized for their strong egg laying abilities, producing large white eggs...
