EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photo print, titled "Bakers of York, 1595-1596" takes us back in time to the bustling world of a 16th-century bakery. The engraving, a copy of the vellum original, showcases the meticulous process involved in bread-making during this era. Intriguingly captured within this image are various stages of dough preparation. We witness skilled bakers meticulously making and raising the dough before moving on to weighing it with precision. These craftsmen adhere strictly to the ordinances set by their guild, ensuring that each loaf meets the highest standards. The scene is filled with an air of industriousness as assistants work diligently alongside their masters. The manuscript visible in the background hints at ancient recipes and baking methods passed down through generations. Amidst sacks brimming with wheat grain and scales used for measuring ingredients accurately, one can almost smell the aroma of freshly baked bread permeating from this historic shop. This snapshot into Elizabethan cookery provides a glimpse into not only how food was prepared but also how trade operated during this period. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of the significance that bread held in Tudor society – a staple nourishment that sustained communities across centuries. Through its intricate details and rich historical context, this engraving transports us back to an era where craftsmanship and tradition were paramount in creating sustenance for all.
