EDITORS COMMENTS
A Feast of merriment and mirth: Henry VIII's Christmas Banquet, 1500s. In this exquisite Tudor tableau, Henry VIII (1491-1547) and his esteemed courtiers revel in the joyous spirit of the holiday season. The King, resplendent in his regal attire, sits at the head of the table, surrounded by his loyal lords and ladies. The air is filled with the tantalizing aroma of roasted meats and spiced wines, as the man bearing the magnificent boar's head, either a chef or a servant, proudly presents his prize to the monarch. The merriment reaches a crescendo as the court erupts in song, with Henry himself composing the lyrics to "The Kings Ballad," also known as "Pastime With Good Company." A jester, ever the entertainer, adds to the festivities with his antics, while a young boy plays a trumpet, its melodic notes resonating through the grand hall. This scene, reminiscent of a frontispiece from a historical tome, transports us back to an era of opulence and grandeur. The intricate details of the rich tapestries, ornate silverware, and sumptuous dishes all contribute to the splendor of this royal Christmas feast. Pauline Baynes' evocative print, "Pastime With Good Company," offers a glimpse into the world of Henry VIII and his court, a world of indulgence, music, and merriment that continues to captivate our imagination.
