About This Item
London: Philip Wilson Publishers, 2000. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. 168 pages illustrated in b&w and color. Issued in conjunction with a series of 2000-2001 exhibitions that trace "the evolution of our national meals through an exploration of English paintings. Works by masters such as Van Aken, Zoffany and Vanessa Bell provide convincing proof that the food of the past gives us a keen insight into the social life of our ancestors. Authentic re-creations of period meal setttings and decorative art objects associated with the table complete the plcture, offering a rare glimpse into the eating habits of British men and women from the reign of Elizabeth I to that of Elizabeth II."
