Lunch Time (18th September 1926: The £100 prize winners from a national essay competition on bananas starting their lunch with bananas". This print captures a moment frozen in time, transporting us back to the British landscape of the early 20th century. In this peculiar scene, both male and female individuals are seen gathered around a table adorned with an abundance of food and drink. However, what makes this image truly intriguing is their choice to kickstart their meal with none other than bananas. The composition exudes an air of curiosity as we witness these prize-winning intellectuals indulging in this exotic fruit that had recently become available in Europe. Their expressions range from amusement to intrigue, reflecting the novelty surrounding this tropical delicacy at the time. As they delve into their banana feast, one can't help but wonder about the discussions taking place amidst bites. Photographer Davis masterfully captures not only a unique cultural moment but also highlights how food has always been intertwined with human connection and exploration. Through his lens, he immortalizes an unconventional dining experience that challenges societal norms while celebrating diversity. This Fine Art Storehouse print serves as a testament to our ever-evolving relationship with food and reminds us of our innate curiosity for new experiences. It invites viewers to reflect upon historical shifts in taste preferences while appreciating the beauty found within everyday moments.
