EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from the 17th century depicts a lively scene of boardgame and drinking at a cozy tavern. The English School artist skillfully captures the essence of winter nights spent in merriment, as people gather around a table to engage in both friendly competition and jovial conversation. The atmosphere is filled with warmth and camaraderie, perfectly illustrated by the quote "They pass away the Winter Night, and live most Merrily". The composition showcases an array of characters: men, women, servants - all united in their pursuit of enjoyment. Tankards are raised high as laughter fills the air, while smoke gently wafts from pipes held between fingers. This woodcut beautifully portrays not just a simple game night but also offers us a glimpse into the social dynamics of that era. As we observe this historic image captured by an unknown English artist centuries ago, it serves as a reminder that human connection and leisurely pursuits have always been cherished across time. It transports us back to an age where taverns were bustling hubs for community engagement and shared experiences. This remarkable piece belongs to the Roxburghe Collection and is part of an extensive collection of ballads and broadsides. Its authenticity adds depth to our understanding of pastimes enjoyed during this period. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's preservation efforts, we can still appreciate this snapshot from history today without any commercial implications.
