EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare Commonwealth spit plate from 1656, crafted in brass by an English School artist of the 17th century. Standing at a height of 28 cm, this ornate piece is held in a private collection and represents a true testament to British craftsmanship during the Baroque era. The spit plate takes on the form of a regal figure adorned with intricate engravings, crowned and holding two pikes. Resting upon a base embellished with twin sea-horses and foliate sprays, it exudes elegance and sophistication. The triad form initials "F. W. M" along with the engraved date add historical significance to this remarkable artifact. With its decorative appeal, this metalwork masterpiece served as both functional cookware and an exquisite domestic object. Used for roasting spits in traditional cooking methods, it reflects the ingenuity of early culinary practices. The photograph captures every detail of this exceptional artwork, highlighting its rich history and cultural importance. It allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also provides insight into life during the Commonwealth period in England. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this image from their extensive collection on Fine Art Finder. As we admire this splendid piece through their lens, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty that lies within our heritage.
