EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling kitchen of Royal Holloway College in Egham, Surrey. The image showcases an all-female staff diligently working amidst a sea of cooking utensils and equipment. Their focused expressions and coordinated movements reveal their expertise and dedication to their craft. The composition is beautifully framed in landscape format, allowing us to appreciate the vastness of this historic kitchen space. The women are dressed impeccably in traditional attire, reflecting the formality and professionalism expected at that time. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that this photograph was captured by none other than W. & D. Downey - renowned photographers known for their exceptional talent in capturing moments with great precision and artistry. Through this evocative image, we are transported back to an era where culinary arts were meticulously practiced even within educational institutions like Royal Holloway College. It serves as a testament to both the importance placed on domestic skills during that period and the significant role played by women behind closed doors. This remarkable piece from Fine Art Storehouse allows us not only to admire its aesthetic qualities but also invites contemplation about societal norms and gender roles prevalent during Victorian England.
