EDITORS COMMENTS

This artwork, created by an English School artist, showcases a comical twist on a traditional Christmas dinner. The scene unfolds in a snowy landscape where a group of diners eagerly gathers around a lavishly set table. However, chaos ensues as we discover that their anticipated feast has been stolen! The mischievous thieves have left behind only empty plates and bewildered expressions on the faces of the guests. This whimsical illustration was originally published in the Illustrated Times on December 24th, 1870. Its detailed depiction invites viewers to imagine what might have become of this stolen dinner. Did it end up being devoured by cunning animals or perhaps shared among those less fortunate? The possibilities are endless. Through its clever storytelling and intricate details, this engraving reminds us not only of the joyous traditions associated with Christmas but also highlights unexpected twists that can bring laughter into our lives. As we gaze upon this artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported to a time when even mishaps could be turned into moments of merriment during this special season.
