EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the introduction of electricity for heating and cooking. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The photograph illustrates a scene from Charles R Gibson's book "Electricity of To-day" (2nd edition, Seeley Service, 1912). In this image, we see a craftsman anxiously preparing breakfast using electric appliances. The room is filled with fear and angst as he navigates through the early days of electric cooking. A kettle sits on the table, water boiling under the watchful eye of the cook. The smell of fire and dirt that once accompanied traditional methods has been replaced by the promise of clean energy. The craftsmanship involved in adapting to this new technology is evident as we observe every detail captured in this drawing-like photo. It showcases not only the practicality but also the artistry behind gastronomy. As morning light streams into the room, highlighting every crease on his face, our craftsman demonstrates his handywork with precision and skill. This image serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our culinary journey - from anxiety-ridden cooks to confident gastronomers embracing modern conveniences. With its historical significance and artistic composition, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an era where electricity revolutionized everyday life - transforming mealtime experiences forever.
