EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and slightly foreboding print titled "Michaelmas Geese 1886" captures a moment of concern for two geese on Michaelmas Day. The Goose and Gander are depicted looking worried as they observe the Cook and Tom preparing to make sauce and stuffing. The historical significance of Michaelmas Day, traditionally celebrated on September 29th, adds an extra layer of intrigue to this scene.
The detail in this print is exquisite, from the feathers on the geese to the ladder leaning against a tree in the background. The artist has expertly captured the emotions of the birds as they realize their fate may be sealed by these culinary preparations.
As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel a sense of empathy for these poultry creatures who are about to become part of someone's meal. It serves as a reminder of our connection to food and nature, highlighting the cycle of life and death that is inherent in all living beings.
Overall, "Michaelmas Geese 1886" is not just a beautiful piece of art but also a thought-provoking reflection on history, food, and our relationship with animals. It invites us to consider our own place in the world as we witness these geese facing their inevitable destiny.
