EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a beautifully glazed capon, enticingly coated in chaud froid designs. Captured by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection and was originally featured as an illustration for Progressive Catering, a comprehensive culinary guide written by J. J. Morel in approximately 1952. The photograph highlights the artistry and creativity involved in mid-century catering and cookery. The capon is adorned with intricate embellishments such as slices of cucumber, radish, shredded truffles, and garnished garden peas. Every detail has been meticulously arranged to create a visually stunning masterpiece that would befit any cold buffet or special occasion. Behind this exquisite creation stands F. G. Horsey, the chef de cuisine at Depot Kitchen for Pullman Car Company – known for their exceptional food supply on luxury trains. His expertise shines through as he skillfully decorates the capon with ornate touches that elevate it from mere sustenance to edible artwork. The inclusion of tomatoes and other vegetables adds a botanical element to the composition while also highlighting scientific methods employed in cooking during this era. This print not only captures history but also celebrates the fusion of artistry and gastronomy that continues to inspire chefs today. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder without commercial intent; rather, it serves as a testament to culinary excellence throughout history.
