EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the enchanting atmosphere of a 16th-century English Christmas as depicted in this evocative print from the Mary Evans Collection. The scene unfolds in the courtyard of an Elizabethan manor house, where the air is filled with the sound of laughter, music, and the crackle of a roaring fire. Mummers, masked performers dressed in vibrant costumes, entertain the crowd with their lively antics and age-old traditions. The manor house, a symbol of wealth and status in Tudor England, stands proudly in the background, its timber-framed walls adorned with ivy and holly. The year is 1580, and the festive season is in full swing. The courtyard is decorated with evergreens, candles, and colorful banners, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Mumming, an ancient custom believed to ward off evil spirits, has been a cherished part of English Christmas celebrations for centuries. The performers, dressed in elaborate costumes and masks, would travel from house to house, putting on shows in exchange for food, drink, and coins. Their performances often included comic skits, swordplay, and morality plays, all designed to bring joy and merriment to the community. As the sun sets and the fire burns low, the mummers continue their lively performance, their masks glowing in the flickering light. The crowd, dressed in their finest attire, watches in delight, transported back in time to an era of merriment, tradition, and joy. This print captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when the spirit of Christmas was celebrated with gusto and a sense of community that endures to this day.
