EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant chromolithograph from Cassells Book of the Household captures a delightful spread of sweet and savoury dishes, perfect for a lavish buffet. At the heart of this culinary display stands an exquisite epergne adorned with an array of beautiful flowers, serving as the centerpiece that commands attention. Surrounding it on a tray are elegant custard glasses filled with luscious fruit and molded jellies, creating a visually appealing symphony of colors. The assortment continues to entice with an impressive turkey and succulent ham taking their rightful place alongside delectable sandwiches and a tantalizing boiled tongue. A game pie glistens under the light, its savory filling encased in shimmering aspic jelly, while a mouthwatering lobster adds an element of indulgence to this already sumptuous feast. Dating back to 1895 London, this print transports us to another era where presentation was paramount. The meticulous arrangement on the tray showcases not only the artistry involved but also highlights the skillful cooking techniques employed by household chefs at that time. Whether it be for entertaining guests or simply relishing in gastronomic pleasures alone, this image reminds us that food has always been more than sustenance; it is an experience meant to be shared and savored. So let your imagination wander as you envision yourself partaking in this opulent buffet spread from yesteryears - where every dish tells its own story and each bite promises pure delight.
