EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Serving The Peacock At A State Banquet" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the grandeur of a bygone era. It is a copy of a woodcut found in an edition of Virgil published in Lyon in 1517, showcasing the intricate details and artistic craftsmanship prevalent during that time. The image transports us to a medieval banquet hall adorned with sumptuous decorations and filled with nobility. Dressed in elaborate costumes, attendees are engrossed in conversation while musicians play enchanting melodies on traditional instruments. The room exudes an air of opulence as guests indulge in a lavish feast fit for royalty. At the center of attention stands an exquisite peacock, meticulously prepared and served as the pièce de résistance. Its vibrant plumage adds splendor to this already magnificent scene. The carefully arranged dining table showcases other delectable dishes featuring poultry and meat, reflecting the culinary preferences of that era. Ken Welsh's expertly captured black-and-white print highlights every intricate detail - from historical attire to ornate illustrations adorning the walls - transporting viewers back through time. This piece serves as both a visual feast for our eyes and an invaluable window into history, allowing us to appreciate the customs and traditions that shaped society during medieval times.
