About the Item

Old colored lithograph by Fairland after W. Nicholson, from "The Breeds of the Domestic Animals of the British Isles" by David Low, published in London, 1842. The lithograph depicts the Alderney breed, including a cow and calf, owned by Mr. Berhoust of Jersey. The artwork shows slight browning and minor edge damage. The image showcases detailed illustrations of the breed, with particular attention to their physical characteristics, set against a pastoral backdrop. The lithograph was drawn on stone and printed by Fairland, with publication details indicating its release in October 1841 by Longman, Orme, Brown, Green, Longmans, Paternoster Row, London. Current Status of the Alderney Breed The Alderney breed, originally from the Channel Island of Alderney, is now extinct. The breed was known for its dairy qualities, producing rich milk ideal for butter and cheese. However, various factors, including crossbreeding and disease, led to its decline. Today, the legacy of the Alderney breed lives on through its influence on other dairy breeds, such as the Guernsey and Jersey cattle, which are still prominent in dairy farming. These breeds continue to be valued for their high-quality milk production. .
