Prize animals from the Royal Agricultural Society's show in Battersea Park, 1862. Creator: Unknown
Prize animals from the Royal Agricultural Society's show in Battersea Park, 1862....Saxony merino rams...One of them was bred by Mr. Heinrich Adolph Steiger, of Leutewitz and Lothayn, near Meissen...The wool is very evenly grown all over the fleece, and of great strength...the gold medallist (which holds its head higher in the Engraving)...was bred by Carl August Gadegast, of Thal, near Oschatz. Beneath these is Ellington, the winner of the Derby in 1856...This dark brown is the property of Mr. Henry Phillips...he bids fair, when a few more of his stock have come out, to become one of the most popular sires of the day. He did not show to full advantage at Battersea, as the new scene so overset him that he could hardly touch any food...Side by side with him is "Bonnie, " a roan cart mare, winner of the first prize in her class, and the property of Mr. John Gay Attwater, of Hallingwood Farm, near Cheltenham; and beneath them the two gold-medal winners in the Swiss cattle classes. The bull, which is of the "tall Swiss brown race, " is the property of Forstand des Scheweizerischen Bawernvereins, and the cow, which is of the red and pale-white spotted Fribourg race...[was] sent over by Adrien Ecoffey Villars Sousmont, canton of Fribourg'.
