EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to the 1930s. The image showcases an exquisite wedding cake, beautifully illustrated and brought to life through the artistic vision of J. M. Richards. Printed by the renowned Curwen Press and published by Country Life, this colour lithograph is a true testament to the craftsmanship of that time. The scene unfolds in an enchanting bakery on High Street, where cabinets filled with delectable treats adorn the walls. A bridal couple stands before one such display, their eyes gleaming with anticipation as they browse through an array of mouth-watering options for their special day. A knowledgeable salesman attentively assists them in making their choice, his expertise evident from years spent serving discerning customers seeking perfection for their celebrations. The atmosphere is brimming with excitement and joy as couples come and go, each searching for that perfect confectionery masterpiece. This remarkable print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a window into a world where meticulous attention was paid to every detail - from intricate cake designs to elegant shop displays. It invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind these creations and the nostalgia associated with simpler times. As we gaze upon this image from Eric Ravilious' Private Collection within The Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of how timeless beauty can be found even within everyday scenes like this bustling bakery on High Street.
