EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed lithograph transports us back to the olden times, specifically Easter celebrations in the 19th century. The image showcases a plethora of Easter offerings, highlighting the customs and traditions associated with this joyous holiday. Intricately designed by an English School artist, this print captures the essence of Easter festivities. The scene is filled with an array of food, drink, and gifts that were traditionally exchanged during this time. Poultry takes center stage as monks present falcons and hawks alongside baskets brimming with eggs and other delicacies. The historical significance of these offerings becomes apparent as we delve into their symbolism. Each item represents a unique aspect of Easter tradition - from the abundance of food supply to the importance placed on wildlife animals such as birds. This portrayal gives us insight into how people in the past celebrated this special occasion. Originally published in The Million magazine on April 16th, 1892, this illustration served as a visual representation for readers eager to learn about historical customs surrounding Easter. Its inclusion in Valerie Jackson Harris' private collection further emphasizes its value as a piece of art history. As we gaze upon this litho print by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded not only of our own modern-day celebrations but also how deeply rooted our traditions are in history. It serves as a testament to the enduring nature of customs passed down through generations and invites us to reflect on how they have evolved over time.
