Painting Description
"Cockfighting, Plates I To VI, On Wove, Hand-coloured Without Margins Published By R. Ackerman 1853" is a notable series of prints created by the artist Newton Fielding. This collection, published in 1853 by the esteemed London-based publisher Rudolph Ackermann, captures the intense and often controversial sport of cockfighting through a series of six detailed and vividly hand-coloured plates.
Newton Fielding, an accomplished artist known for his animal and sporting scenes, brings to life the dynamic and brutal nature of cockfighting, a practice that has deep historical roots and has been both celebrated and condemned over the centuries. Each plate in the series meticulously depicts various stages and aspects of the cockfighting event, from the preparation of the birds to the climactic moments of the fight. Fielding's attention to detail and his ability to convey motion and emotion through his art make this series a significant work in the genre of sporting art.
The publication by R. Ackermann, a prominent figure in the art publishing world during the 19th century, ensured that these prints reached a wide audience. Ackermann was known for his high-quality publications and his role in popularizing various forms of art and literature. The choice to publish these plates without margins and on wove paper, a high-quality paper known for its smooth surface, further emphasizes the importance and intended impact of the work.
"Cockfighting, Plates I To VI" not only serves as a visual documentation of a historical practice but also reflects the societal attitudes and cultural contexts of the time. The hand-colouring of the prints adds a layer of vibrancy and realism, making each scene more immediate and engaging for the viewer. This series remains a valuable piece for those interested in 19th-century sporting art, the history of cockfighting, and the work of Newton Fielding.
