About this product
Product Information
The book describes the significance of food and feasts as told in Scripture and in the lives of the saints; food and dining in Greek and Roman mythology and in later literature and history; and how artists through the ages have created allegories of gluttony and odes to the sense of taste, using, for example, artfully positioned fruits and vegetables in the golden age of the still-life genre in painting. Also discussed is the role of table settings in relation to formal dinners and royal banquets. Lastly, a close-up look at the symbolic meanings of individual foods and drinks reveals a figurative language well known to artists of the time.
