EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 17th century showcases a scene of men indulging in their favorite hot beverages - coffee, tea, and chocolate. The print is a reproduction of a plate from Philippe Sylvestre Dufour's renowned book "Traites Nouveaux et Curieux du Cafe, du The, et du Chocolate" published in 1688. The image transports us to an era where these exotic drinks were still relatively new and highly sought after. It offers a glimpse into the social customs surrounding consumption during that time period. In this bustling setting, we see men gathered together in what appears to be a sweet shop or candy store adorned with various treats. The attention to detail is remarkable as it captures not only the men enjoying their beverages but also includes elements such as cocoa pods and beans, highlighting the origins of chocolate production. Additionally, there are indoor plants adding a touch of botanical beauty to the scene. This engraving serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of early South American influence on European culture through trade routes established during colonial times. It also reflects the growing popularity and fascination with these exotic flavors across different continents. Overall, this print provides us with a window into the past - showcasing how coffeehouses became hubs for social interaction while offering insights into global connections forged through trade and exploration during this period in history.
