EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to a momentous event in history - the feast held at Hampton Court Palace on 18 November 1623, where King James I of England and his son Charles hosted the Spanish Ambassadors. The image beautifully captures the grandeur and opulence of the occasion. In this banquet scene, we see a lavish spread laid out on buffets, tempting guests with an array of delectable dishes. The room exudes elegance, befitting royalty, with its ornate decor and regal ambiance. Members of the royal court are seen dining alongside their Spanish counterparts, fostering diplomatic relations through shared meals. The print offers a glimpse into a significant chapter in English history during the reign of King James I from the House of Stuart. It showcases not only his majesty but also highlights his son Charles as they engage in diplomacy with Spain. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this illustration was originally featured in "The History of Hampton Court Palace" by Ernest Law. Its inclusion in this publication aimed to provide readers with insight into one particular historical event that occurred within these hallowed palace walls. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back to a time when feasts were not just about indulgence but served as powerful tools for forging alliances between nations.
