EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to a bustling kitchen scene filled with an abundance of culinary delights. Painted by Pieter Aertsen between 1560 and 1565, this panel showcases various people amidst a vibrant array of vegetables, fruits, bread, poultry, and fish. The composition is alive with activity as each character engages in their own task. In the forefront of the image stands a loyal dog, perhaps eagerly awaiting any morsels that may fall its way. Meanwhile, in the background near a warm fireplace, we catch sight of a woman spinning yarn - her presence adding an additional layer of domesticity to this lively scene. Aertsen's masterful use of oil paint brings out the rich colors and textures found within each element depicted. From the glistening scales on freshly caught fish to the earthy tones of ripe produce, every detail is meticulously rendered. This remarkable artwork not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us insight into daily life during the Renaissance period. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, food brought people together and played an integral role in our existence.
