EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "A Bill of Fare" takes us back to the year 1896, as depicted in The Illustrated London News. Created by Stanley Berkeley, a talented artist known for his detailed engravings, this artwork showcases a lively scene filled with various elements that capture the essence of the time. In this bustling image, we are transported to a vibrant restaurant setting where patrons eagerly peruse their menus. The central focus is on an elegantly dressed couple seated at a table adorned with fine china and cutlery. Their attention is drawn towards the bill of fare presented before them, which offers an array of delectable options. The menu itself features mouthwatering dishes such as succulent lamb cutlets and hearty Irish stew, highlighting the culinary delights of that era. Surrounding the main characters are other diners engaged in animated conversations while enjoying their meals. Adding further charm to this composition are two adorable dogs playfully interacting with each other under the table. Horses and livestock can be seen outside through large windows, reminding us of the rural origins from which these ingredients were sourced. Berkeley's meticulous engraving technique brings every detail to life - from intricate patterns on clothing to carefully etched textures on furniture and walls. This print serves as both a visual feast for our eyes and a nostalgic glimpse into dining customs long past. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this remarkable piece remains cherished for its historical significance and artistic brilliance.
