EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Peasants of Sora preparing Polenta" we are transported back in time to 19th century Italy. The image showcases a group of hardworking peasants diligently engaged in the age-old tradition of preparing polenta, a staple dish in Italian cuisine. The scene is filled with authenticity and cultural richness as the peasants can be seen gathered around a large wooden table, their weathered hands skillfully stirring the bubbling pot of cornmeal porridge. Their faces reflect years of laborious work under the sun, yet there is an undeniable sense of camaraderie and unity among them. The setting itself exudes rustic charm, with humble dwellings forming the backdrop against which this culinary ritual takes place. It serves as a reminder that food not only sustains us physically but also brings people together, fostering bonds and creating cherished memories. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for "Italy from the Alps to Mount Etna" published by Chapman and Hall in 1878. Its inclusion in this collection speaks to its historical significance and recognition as an emblematic representation of Italian peasant life during that era. As we gaze upon this print, we cannot help but appreciate the resilience and resourcefulness exhibited by these peasants who relied on their own hands to nourish themselves and their families. It serves as a testament to their unwavering spirit amidst challenging circumstances. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the rich heritage embedded within every plateful of polenta -
