The Well-stocked Kitchen, 1566

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Joachim Beuckelaer that offers a glimpse into the bustling atmosphere of a Netherlandish kitchen during the 16th century. The artwork showcases an abundance of food and culinary tools, emphasizing the importance of sustenance in daily life. However, what sets this painting apart is its underlying message conveyed through a subtle contrast. Amidst the vibrant display of vegetables, fruits, meats, and pots and pans, we find Christ visiting Mary and Martha in the background. This juxtaposition serves as a reminder that man cannot solely rely on material possessions or physical nourishment alone. As stated in the Bible, "Man shall not live by bread alone". Beuckelaer's composition skillfully intertwines domestic scenes with religious symbolism to convey deeper spiritual meaning. The meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate every element within this masterpiece – from plucked chickens hanging nearby to roasted meats sizzling on spits over an open fireplace. The presence of various dishes being prepared signifies both indulgence and diligent work ethics. "The Well-stocked Kitchen" invites viewers to reflect upon their own relationship with food and spirituality. It prompts contemplation about finding balance between earthly desires and higher aspirations. This remarkable piece can be found at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam where it continues to captivate audiences with its rich historical context and artistic brilliance.

The Ramifications Of The Blockhouse System, Which Played So Large A Part In The Concluding Operations In South Africa, After The Second Boer War, Are Shown Here By Black Circles And Lines, Which Represent Respectively The Blockhouses And The Barbed Wire Entanglements Connecting Them. Actually, The Blockhouses Were About 600 Yards Apart; That Is, About Three To Every Mile. It Will Be Seen That All The Railways Were Protected By A Line Of Little Forts Along One Side Of The Rails, And That Pretoria And Johannesburg Were Surrounded By A Network Of Blockhouse Cordons. The Other Lines Sometimes Followed Roadways, As From Bloemfontein To Ladybrand, Or They Cut Across The Open In Order To Close Districts Used By The Boer Bands, Such As The Lindley-Bethlehem Country. From Pretoria The Blockhouses Extended Eastwards To Komati Poort, Which Is Beyond The Range Of The Map. From Field Marshal Lord Kitchener, His Life And Work For The Empire, Published 1916
