Antique White Cochin Cock Print by Harrison Weir – 19th Century Poultry Illustration

Description:
This stunning vintage print by Harrison Weir features the White Cochin Cock, a majestic breed known for its large frame, feathered legs, and gentle nature. The Cochin breed, originally from China, became popular in Europe and America in the 19th century due to its striking appearance and calm temperament.

This detailed illustration, published by Leighton Brothers, showcases the proud stance of the White Cochin Rooster, set against a rural farm backdrop. Measuring approximately 14.5 x 19 cm and mounted on black cardboard with a 2 cm border, this print is a fine example of 19th-century poultry artistry. Given its age, the print may display signs of wear, such as slight discoloration, foxing, or minor edge tears, enhancing its vintage charm.
