EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "A new method of macaroni making, as practiced in Boston, c. 1836" offers a fascinating glimpse into the culinary practices of early 19th-century America. Created by an anonymous American artist from the 19th century and housed at the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts, this print measures 33.6x25.7 cm. The image showcases a scene that combines elements of satire and political commentary with the art of macaroni making. In the foreground stands a male figure dressed as a customs officer who has been tarred and feathered - a punishment often associated with public humiliation during colonial times. This caricatured portrayal is reminiscent of the infamous Boston Tea Party incident that took place in 1773. With meticulous detail and skillful engraving techniques, this satirical artwork invites viewers to reflect on historical events while also highlighting cultural practices related to food production during this era. As we admire this intriguing piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, it's important to note its significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its ability to shed light on social dynamics and political sentiments prevalent at that time. The print serves as a testament to how art can capture historical moments while offering insights into society's values and beliefs.
