Cows
One sheet, This image is of a vintage French educational poster titled
"Les Animaux de la Ferme" (The Farm Animals). The poster features illustrations of various breeds of cattle with their names in French written below them.
The poster's artist is listed as Imprimerie E. Kepp and it is dated to around 1920. The poster is part of a series of educational charts and depicts several breeds of French and other European cattle, including:
Vache Picarde: A breed from Picardy, France.
Vache Comtoise: A breed from the Jura region of France.
Vache Flamande: The Flanders Red cattle breed from northern France.
Vache de Montbeliard: A red and white dairy cattle breed from eastern France, known for cheesemaking.
Vache de Jersey: A small dairy breed originally from the island of Jersey, known for its rich milk.
Vache de Salers: A breed from the Cantal mountains in central France, also associated with cheesemaking.
Vache Gasconne: A grey beef cattle breed from the Gascony region of France.
Vache Garonnaise: A historical breed of cow.
Vache Vendéenne: Part of a group of wheaten-colored cattle from western France.
Vache Bazadaise: A grey beef cattle breed from the Gironde region of France.
Vache Bretonne: The Bretonne Pie Noir, the smallest French cattle breed.
Vache Suisse Tachetée ou Bernoise: Swiss Fleckvieh cattle, or the Bernese breed.
Vache Suisse Brune ou Schwitz: The Brown Swiss, or Braunvieh breed, known for its high-protein milk for cheesemaking.
Vache Angus ou sans cornes: The Angus cattle breed, known for being naturally hornless.
Vache Hollandaise: The Holstein-Friesian breed, often referred to as the Dutch cow.
It is important to note that a famous conceptual art piece by Marcel Broodthaers from 1974, also titled Les Animaux de la Ferme, uses a similar grid-like presentation of cattle but replaces the breed names with names of car manufacturers.
