Randall Lineback Cow and Calf

$50.00

Open edition print, 10”x 10”, giclee print on hannemuhle paper, with 1 in. border, ready to frame in standard 12”x12” frame, $50.

The last survivor of the triple-purpose landrace cattle that worked New England farms for three centuries — milking, drafting, and feeding families — the Randall Lineback is a living genetic time capsule that exists today only because one Vermont family kept a closed herd for over 80 years and a handful of conservationists caught them at the last possible moment. Their coloring alone stops people cold: a striking white lineback pattern with black, blue roan, or speckled markings that looks extraordinary against green grass. Good mothers, capable of fiercely protective instincts with their calves, and built for low-input forage-based farming — every Randall calf born is a small act of rescue.
