EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 16th century print captures a heartwarming moment in the life of a German burgher family as they gather around the table for a meal. The scene exudes a sense of warmth and togetherness, with the family members sharing a moment of connection and gratitude before they begin to eat. The eldest son of the family bows his head in prayer, leading the family in grace, while one of the smaller children sits dangerously close to the roaring fire, adding an element of playful energy to the scene. In the corner of the room, a bed is tucked away, suggesting that this is not only a dining area but also a place for rest and relaxation. A pet sits quietly by the hearth, adding to the domestic scene. The baby in the high chair, gazing up at the others, is a reminder of the cycle of life and the importance of family in medieval German society. This historical print offers a glimpse into the daily life and social customs of the past, providing a fascinating window into the world of a German burgher family during the 16th century.
