Roasting the Ox, at Buckingham, 1844 - A Grand Celebration of Rich Tradition
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous occasion in British history - the 21st birthday celebrations of Richard Plantagenet Campbell Temple-Nugent-Brydges-Chandos-Grenville, the Marquis of Chandos and eldest son of the Duke of Buckingham. The festivities took place at Stowe in Buckinghamshire, as depicted in this engraving from "Illustrated London News" dated 1844. In this remarkable scene, men can be seen gathered around a magnificent ox being roasted to perfection on an open fire. The air is filled with anticipation and excitement as they prepare to indulge in a feast fit for royalty. This image offers us a glimpse into an era when grand celebrations were held to mark significant milestones. The attention to detail is striking - from the crank handle used for basting the beef to the expressions on each person's face, reflecting their eagerness for what lies ahead. It is evident that food played a central role in these joyous occasions, bringing people together and symbolizing abundance and prosperity. As we admire this historical snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its significance as a testament to British heritage. Through this image by an unknown creator, we are transported back to 19th-century England where traditions were upheld with great pride and reverence.
