EDITORS COMMENTS
Gluttony Unabashed: A Feast of Strawberries and Cream in 1835 This image, titled 'Gluttonous Man,' depicts a self-indulgent gentleman in the midst of a sumptuous feast, surrounded by an abundance of fresh strawberries and cream. The man, with a look of pure pleasure on his face, has taken great precautions to ensure his indulgence goes uninterrupted. He sits in a comfortable chair, a table laden with strawberries and a large bowl of cream within reach. With a glass of wine in hand, he leans forward, filling his mouth with the sweet, succulent fruit and savoring each bite. The door to the room is locked, a clear indication of his desire for solitude and privacy during his gluttonous moment. The window, slightly ajar, lets in a soft light that filters through the curtains, casting an ethereal glow on the scene. The man's attire, fashionable for the time, adds to the historical context of the image, further emphasizing its place in the annals of 19th-century society. This print, produced in 1835, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the extravagance and indulgence that was once considered a sign of wealth and status.

The rich colors, intricate details, and historical significance make this print an essential addition to any collection, offering a unique and fascinating glimpse into the past. Whether displayed as a conversation starter, a decorative piece, or a study in historical art, 'Gluttonous Man' is a captivating and thought-provoking addition to any home or office.
