Step back in time and indulge in the grandeur throughout history. From the opulent Coronation Pageantry of the Past to Esther feasting with the king, these scenes depict lavish banquets that have stood the test of time. Intricate tapestries like "Banquet with King in an Arcade" transport us to Brussels, Belgium, where a regal gathering takes place. The rich colors and detailed wool work bring this scene from 1525-50 to life. Imagine stepping into an imaginary Renaissance palace depicted in a 1602 oil painting. The tables are adorned with delectable dishes fit for royalty as guests revel in merriment and indulgence. Travel further back to witness historical events such as the Wedding Feast of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary and Louis of Thuringia. This oil panel from c. 1490-c. 1495 captures not only their union but also the sumptuous feast that accompanied it. Venture outdoors with "An open-air Party" painted on panel in 1615. Amidst lush greenery, people gather around a table filled with delicacies while enjoying each other's company under clear skies. Marvel at tapestry fragments depicting court scenes and banquets made around 1500 using wool threads intricately woven together. These pieces offer glimpses into extravagant celebrations held during that era. The Preparations for the Banquet of Gods fresco detail from 1528-30 showcases mythical figures coming together for Cupid and Psyche's wedding feast, reminding us that even gods partake in elaborate dining experiences. Another remarkable tapestry portrays an Open Air Meal set amidst Tournai's Garden of Love circa 1510 using silk and wool threads meticulously intertwined. It invites you to immerse yourself in its vibrant colors while imagining being present at this enchanting banquet. Switching gears, we encounter Don Juan and his commander engaged in a banquet captured through watercolors.
