EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate medieval carvings of trebles, bread, and black jacks of beer. The Spandrel, located in Buttery Hall, is a remarkable example of wood and bone craftsmanship by the English School from the 14th century. Courtesy of the esteemed Warden and Scholars of New College in Oxford, this image offers a glimpse into an era long gone. The attention to detail in these carved figures is truly awe-inspiring. Each wooden figure exudes a sense of stylized elegance as they adorn the architrave with their presence. The dark hue of the wood adds depth and richness to this masterpiece. What makes this artwork even more intriguing is its depiction of everyday life during medieval times. Bread symbolizes sustenance while black jacks filled with beer represent indulgence and merriment. These elements remind us that even centuries ago, people sought comfort and enjoyment through food and drink. As we delve into this photograph's intricacies, we are transported back in time to witness not only exceptional artistry but also gain insight into social customs surrounding alcohol consumption during that period. With every glance at this print by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded that history has much to teach us about our own existence today – how traditions evolve yet remain rooted in human desires for nourishment and pleasure.
