Peafowls are domesticated by humans since antiquity, and they were held not just for fun or demonstration to guests, but also for food. Though the taste of this exotic dish was considered not as fine as chicken or turkey. Decorated with bright feathers, it was an indispensable attribute of a grandiose feast. Interestingly, the fashion for having peacocks in gardens gradually disappeared. As it was believed that the unpleasant cries of the bird and the damage it causes to the crop outweigh its decorative value. However, peacocks as home birds are still popular in India and some other Eastern countries.
Probably, you won’t find anyone who’d never seen a peacock. However, not everyone knows that so called “train” is not the bird’s tail, which is actually small and unremarkable. In reality the luxury train consists of long upper tail coverts. Such a catchy plumage serves not exclusively to attract females but also for protection from enemies. In moments of danger peacock fans its train, which “look” with a set of “eyes” at the enemy, frighten him and make flee.
It’s funny, but the closest relatives of gorgeous peafowls are ordinary chickens. Externally, the similarity between them can be noticed perhaps only in behavior. Peacocks, just like the roosters, love to walk around imposingly and flaunt in front of his peahens. By the way, in the “harem” of the pretty boy there are at least three “wives”.
To work with a design like BEAUTIFUL PEACOCK is a great pleasure! No matter where you decide to place it, whether on home textiles, clothing, accessories, or canvas for paintings, the pattern won’t ever stop to delight you.
