EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and elegance of the Columbian Banquet held at the Lenox Lyceum in New York City on October 12,1892. The banquet was organized to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus' historic voyage to America. In this late 19th-century American wood engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous celebration that epitomizes the spirit of festivity and commemoration. The image showcases a magnificent interior adorned with ornate decorations, reflecting the opulence of Manhattan's upper class during the Gilded Age. Men and women dressed in fashionable attire fill every corner of the room, eagerly participating in this extraordinary event. From an elevated balcony, spectators watch as dignitaries take center stage to honor Columbus' remarkable journey. The dining tables are meticulously set for a feast fit for royalty, featuring delectable dishes such as gigot (roast leg of lamb) - a symbol of abundance and indulgence. Amidst all these festivities, Old Glory proudly waves in patriotic splendor. This print not only captures a significant historical milestone but also provides us with glimpses into turn-of-the-century American society. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and modernity, traditions and celebrations hold great importance in our collective memory.
