EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cooking Fish, plate XIII" takes us back in time to the early 17th century and offers a glimpse into the culinary practices of Native American Indians in Virginia. The engraving, created by Theodore de Bry and printed by Johann Wechel in 1600, showcases a scene of primitive cooking techniques. In this image, we see a group of native males gathered around a fire grill as they prepare their catch. Clad only in loincloths and adorned with traditional headdresses, these tribal men exhibit both strength and grace as they engage in the age-old ritual of food preparation. Their expertise is evident as they skillfully cook fish over an open flame. The attention to detail captured by de Bry transports us to another era, allowing us to witness firsthand the customs and traditions of these indigenous people. This artwork serves not only as a visual feast but also provides valuable insights into the daily lives of Native Americans during this period. Displayed at Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon Collection, this remarkable piece invites contemplation on cultural diversity and historical heritage. It reminds us that art has the power to bridge gaps between different times and cultures while preserving our shared human experiences.
