A Devonshire Cow.
Pub: by G. Garrard, London. July 18th. 1799.
First issue. Very fine hand-coloured engraving. 324 x 482mm (12¾ x 19"), with wide margins, watermarked: 'J. Whatman 1794'.
A devonshire cow, with its rich tawny coloured coat and thus often called the Devon Ruby. George Garrard (1760 - 1826) was an animal painter who turned his attention to the making of casts and models of many subjects, but mainly of domestic animals. He was sponsored by the fifth Duke of Bedford, who was the first president of the Smithfield Club (founded I798), and by the third Earl of Egremont, as well as by other members of the Board of Agriculture. Garrard called his house in Hanover Square, London, 'The Agricultural Museum,' and from there he sold his paintings, engraving and models. Issued with original colour like this, Garrard's Cows cost 5 shillings each.
Boalch The Rothamsted Collection: 96.
