"Journey through the Ages: Exploring Alimentation in Art and History" Step back in time with us as we delve into the fascinating world of alimentation, depicted through various artworks and historical artifacts. From a vibrant French advertisement for Parizot mustard in 1930 to an enchanting painting by Rosa Bonheur capturing an Alpine shepherd giving salt to his sheep, these glimpses offer a unique perspective on the significance of food throughout history. Travel further back to the 14th century with Tacuinum Sanitatis, where butchery is portrayed as both a necessity and an art form. The official Isi's offering table from ancient times showcases how food played a crucial role in religious rituals. Meanwhile, false-doors belonging to Dedu-hekenu shed light on Egyptian culinary practices during that era. Artists have long been captivated by the beauty of fruits and nature's bounty. Admire "Apples and Oranges, " painted in 1895, which brings forth the vibrancy of these delectable treats. A tender moment unfolds before our eyes as we witness a little girl feeding a bird in captivity - reminding us of our responsibility towards all living creatures. Love stories are intertwined with nourishment too; Eliezer and Rebecca's tale comes alive through oil on canvas from the 17th century. Still-life paintings like "Plaster Cupid" transport us into serene moments where objects symbolize love or evoke emotions tied to sustenance. Finally, join us at lunchtime at Restaurant Fournaise or witness "The Rowers' Lunch. " Painted between 1875-1876, this masterpiece captures not only people enjoying their meal but also highlights social gatherings around food - showcasing its power to bring communities together. Through these diverse artistic expressions spanning centuries, we gain insight into how alimentation has shaped cultures worldwide.
