EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the Middle Ages, where food and cooking were a true art form. The engraving by Jost Amman showcases a grand feast, with a magnificent peacock taking center stage on the table. The peacock's vibrant feathers are beautifully displayed, adding an air of opulence to the scene. Surrounding it are various dishes and crockery, showcasing the abundance of food available during this era. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every element from the drum and tambourine played by musicians to the flute being played by one of the guests adds depth and life to this image. It is clear that this gathering was not just about indulging in delicious cuisine but also about enjoying music and entertainment. Multiple people can be seen engaging in conversation, creating a lively atmosphere filled with laughter and merriment. This engraving serves as a window into history, providing us with insight into how feasts were celebrated during medieval times. It reminds us of the importance placed on communal dining experiences and highlights how food brought people together for joyous occasions. Jaime Abecasis has captured this moment through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic mastery of Jost Amman's original work as well as Abecasis' skillful photography. This print is truly a treasure for any lover of history or fine art.
