EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing woodcut illustration from A Book of Roxburghe Ballads, capturing the essence of daily life in 17th century England. The print depicts a bustling scene at a chemist shop, where men and women gather to purchase their medicinal elixirs. The image showcases the fashionable attire of the era, with gentlemen and ladies adorned in elaborate clothing. The central focus of the illustration is a man holding a glass filled with what appears to be beer or some form of alcohol. This beverage, known as "phylick" was believed to have medicinal properties that could cheer both heart and mind. It was considered an essential remedy for ailments and fears that plagued individuals during those times. The woodcut beautifully captures the vibrant atmosphere within the shop, as customers eagerly seek solace through this potent elixir. The intricate details highlight not only the social importance placed on such remedies but also reflect the fashion trends prevalent during this period. This piece offers us a glimpse into Elizabethan and Jacobean society's fascination with medical treatments intertwined with daily life activities like drinking beer. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors sought comfort in seemingly simple pleasures while navigating their own challenges centuries ago.
