Mary Ellen Best «The Kitchen at Langton Hall», 1830: 1 комментарий
The present work dates from the 1830s, when Mary Ellen Best would frequently visit her grandmother, Anne Norcliffe, at Langton Hall. The well-appointed kitchen is filled with the numerous, neatly organized tin pots and pans, copper molds, pewter tableware and utensils of every shape and size and dining ware required of a country home. As Caroline Davidson explains, the short-sleeved cook carries a tray heavy with a pie baked in the oven, the opening visible behind cloths used to cover rising dough and finished pastries hung across kitchen chairs. Soup and vegetables were prepared on the boiling range just visible at the compositions’ right, while the smoke jack in the chimney turns a spit with a roast in front of an open range.
