EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time when the art of carving a roast turkey was celebrated at the domestic table. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image showcases the skill and precision required to present a beautifully carved bird for a meal. The photograph is part of a private collection and was originally used as an illustration for Progressive Catering, a comprehensive book on food, cookery, drink, catering services, and management. It provides insight into historical culinary practices and traditions. Intriguingly, this image not only highlights the importance of food but also sheds light on cultural aspects related to turkey consumption. With references to Europe, Middle East, Turkey (both as poultry and country), it emphasizes how diverse cuisines can bring people together. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition - from the wooden carving board adorned with bas reliefs to the various farm animals depicted in the background. This photograph serves as both documentation of history and celebration of culinary expertise. As we gaze upon this timeless scene captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that food has always been more than just sustenance; it is an integral part of our culture and heritage.
