EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print from the early 16th century, titled "COOKING: ROAST, c1530. Smelling the roast" we are transported back in time to a bustling German kitchen during the Renaissance era. The scene is filled with an air of anticipation and delight as men and women gather around a crackling fire, eagerly awaiting the succulent aroma wafting from a roasting dish. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every element meticulously etched into the woodcut. We can almost feel the warmth emanating from the flames and hear the gentle crackle of burning logs. The artist skillfully captures not only the physicality of cooking but also its social aspect, as people engage in conversation while their senses are tantalized by delicious scents. This image offers us a glimpse into daily life centuries ago when communal cooking was at its heart. It reminds us that food has always been more than just sustenance; it brings people together, creating bonds and fostering shared experiences. Sarin Images / The Granger Collection has preserved this historical gem for us to admire and appreciate today. As we gaze upon this woodcut print, we are reminded of our connection to those who came before us and how even something as simple as smelling a roast can evoke feelings of nostalgia and wonderment across time.
