EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Hospitality and Charity of Old Times" takes us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the customs and values of the 19th century. The image showcases an English kitchen bustling with activity, where skilled craftsmen and craftswomen are diligently preparing a feast fit for royalty. The scene is filled with historical charm as we witness the artistry involved in cooking and baking. A masterful cook tends to a succulent piece of beef while others expertly handle fish, showcasing their gastronomic prowess. The air is thick with the aroma of delectable dishes being prepared from scratch. Beyond its culinary significance, this artwork also highlights the importance placed on hospitality and charity during old times. As guests arrive at this generous host's home, they are greeted warmly by both humans and animals alike. This portrayal emphasizes that kindness extends not only to fellow human beings but also to wildlife animals who share our world. Through this enchanting print, we are reminded of how food was once sourced directly from nature – an intimate connection between mankind and its environment that has become somewhat lost in modern times. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler days when craftsmanship thrived in every aspect of life. This beautiful engraving captures not just a moment frozen in time but also evokes emotions tied to history, culture, community spirit, and our shared love for good food prepared with care.
