One sheet, Enseignement Agricole: Les Animaux de la Ferme
The image shows a vintage French educational poster titled "Enseignement Agricole: Les Animaux de la Ferme" (Agricultural Education: The Animals of the Farm), specifically "Tableau N° 5" (Board No. 5). The poster illustrates and names 15 different breeds of French bulls, including:
Taureau Cotentin
Taureau Flamand
Taureau Gascon
Taureau Charolais
Taureau Hollandais
Taureau Garonnais
Taureau Parthenais
Taureau Limousin
Taureau Tarentais
Taureau Bazadais
Taureau de Salers
Taureau Durham
Taureau de Montbeliard
Taureau Fribourgeois
Taureau Bernois
These types of educational charts were published by Deyrolle and Les Fils de J. Rulleau, P., among others, to teach about nature, art, and education. The style is also associated with artist Marcel Broodthaers, who created a work titled "Les Animaux de la Ferme" in 1974, which was a conceptual piece that replaced the names of the cattle with car manufacturers. |
