EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Grace before Meat, 1660". Dutch artist Jan Havicksz. Steen beautifully captures a heartwarming scene of family togetherness and gratitude. Set within the cozy confines of an inviting interior, we witness a mother seated at a table with her baby in her lap, while an older child eagerly looks on. The aroma of freshly baked bread mingles with the rich scent of cheese and ham that adorn the meal before them. As they prepare to partake in their nourishing feast, it is evident that this family understands the importance of giving thanks for their sustenance. With heads bowed and hands clasped together, they engage in a moment of grace - expressing gratitude for both the food on their plates and the love that binds them as one. The composition exudes warmth and tenderness; every detail meticulously rendered by Steen's skilled hand. From the soft glow emanating from candlelight to the intricate patterns adorning their clothing, each element adds depth to this intimate portrayal. "Grace before Meat" serves as a timeless reminder of our shared human experience - how gathering around a table can foster connection, nurture relationships, and remind us all to appreciate life's simple pleasures. This print invites us into its world where love abounds amidst humble surroundings – reminding us that true wealth lies not only in material possessions but also in cherished moments spent with loved ones.
