EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back in time to the early 20th century, showcasing a page from Harrods catalogue featuring Borwicks Baking Powder. The image exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, perfectly capturing the essence of luxury shopping at one of London's most iconic department stores. In this beautifully detailed print, we see a variety of delectable pastries and cakes displayed on a pristine counter. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every crumb and icing swirl seems to come alive before our eyes. A doctor stands nearby, perhaps endorsing the health benefits of using Borwicks Baking Powder in these delicious treats. The presence of a price list reminds us that even back then, quality came at a cost. But for those who could afford it, indulging in such mouthwatering delights was an experience worth every penny. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this lithograph also provides valuable insight into historical food culture. It highlights the importance placed on digestible ingredients like Borwicks Baking Powder for creating light and fluffy breads and puddings - a stark contrast to today's obsession with gluten-free or low-carb alternatives. Overall, this print not only celebrates the artistry behind pastry-making but also offers glimpses into the evolution of retail and culinary trends throughout history. It serves as a reminder that even something as simple as baking powder can hold great significance within our cultural heritage.
