EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a French dinner in 1897, beautifully captured through the art of chromolithography. The menu, meticulously designed by the French School of the 19th century, showcases the culinary delights that awaited diners during this era. The image transports us to a time when dining was an exquisite affair, with waiters dressed in period costumes serving delectable dishes on elegantly set tables. The attention to detail is evident as we observe the intricate table settings and imagine the tantalizing aromas wafting from each plate. This piece of ephemera not only captures a moment in history but also reflects French culture and its deep appreciation for food. It serves as a reminder of how cuisine has always been at the heart of French society, influencing both their overseas territories and their own unique culinary traditions. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Valerie Jackson Harris Collection, we are transported back in time to experience a taste of late 19th-century France. It reminds us that dining is not just about sustenance; it is an art form that brings people together to savor flavors and create lasting memories.
