EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the grandeur of the 16th century with this image of Cardinal Wolsey's Kitchen at Hampton Court Palace. This historic photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a rare glimpse into the opulent interior of this magnificent Tudor building. The kitchen, a testament to the extravagance and power of Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, was built between 1514 and 1516 as part of the expansion of Henry VIII's favored minister's palace. The image reveals the impressive range, with its ornate hearth and spit, where the royal feasts were once prepared. The large kettles and pots suspended above the open fire would have been used to cook a variety of dishes for the cardinal and his guests. The long table, laden with food and drink, adds to the sense of grandeur and abundance. The intricately carved legs and detailed woodwork are evidence of the skilled craftsmanship of the time. The kitchen was not only a place for cooking but also a space for entertaining, as shown by the presence of a large table and benches. In 1529, as Wolsey fell from favor with Henry VIII, he was forced to give the palace to the king to prevent further disgrace. The kitchen, like the rest of Hampton Court Palace, continued to serve the royal household for centuries to come. This photograph, taken by Grenville Collins from Mary Evans Prints Online, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of a Tudor kitchen in its prime.
