EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Coarse Behaviour At The Dining Table During The Renaissance Period" takes us back to a time when social customs and table manners were far from refined. Captured from a Spanish copper engraving dating back to 1545, this image offers a glimpse into the rowdy and lewd behavior that characterized dining in the sixteenth century. In this scene, we witness a group of diners gathered around a table in what appears to be an opulent room. However, any semblance of elegance is quickly shattered by their coarse conduct. Some individuals are seen gorging themselves with food, disregarding any sense of moderation or decorum. Others engage in boisterous conversation, seemingly oblivious to the presence of others. The image serves as a stark reminder that societal norms surrounding mealtime etiquette have evolved significantly over the centuries. It highlights how different our modern-day dining experiences are compared to those during the Renaissance period. Published in 1909 by Eduard Fuchs as part of his comprehensive work on illustrated social history, this photograph provides valuable insights into historical customs and habits. Its inclusion in Ken Welsh's collection showcases his dedication to preserving and sharing images that offer glimpses into our shared past. Whether viewed for its historical significance or simply appreciated for its artistic value, this print invites contemplation about how far we have come in terms of civilized behavior at the dining table.
