EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph by Waterhouse Hawkins showcases the incredible versatility of the goat, a true jack-of-all-trades in the animal kingdom. The image transports us back to the Crystal Palace Exhibition of 1851, where this remarkable artwork was displayed alongside other prehistoric animals created by Hawkins. In this print, we see a majestic goat standing proudly amidst a backdrop that symbolizes its various contributions to mankind. From milk and cheese production to meat and leather manufacturing, goats have long been cherished for their ability to provide sustenance and materials essential for human survival. This lithograph also highlights how goats played a vital role in textiles, gloves, shoes, and even draught work. The intricate details captured by Waterhouse Hawkins allow us to appreciate both the beauty of these creatures and their immense utility throughout history. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the profound connection between humans and animals in agriculture and food production. Graphic Illustrations of Animals and Their Utility to Man serves as an invaluable historical document shedding light on our reliance on livestock like goats. It is through works like these that we gain insight into past practices while appreciating how far we have come in utilizing nature's resources sustainably.
