EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing copper engraving from the 15th century captures a unique and erotically symbolic scene of a woman making sausages. The German School artist skillfully depicts the craftswoman engaged in her culinary task, surrounded by various elements that add depth to the composition. The image is part of Illustrierte Sittengeschichte von Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart, an illustrated history book by Eduard Fuchs published in Munich around 1910. It showcases the rich cultural and social aspects of food preparation during medieval times. The symbolism within this artwork goes beyond its gastronomic subject matter. It delves into themes of sexuality, renaissance, and even hints at double entendre through its mesmeric details. The black and white color palette adds a timeless quality to the piece while emphasizing its historical significance. In addition to portraying a woman's role in cooking during the Middle Ages, this engraving also features a collie dog as a loyal companion or perhaps even as a guard dog for protection. This inclusion further enhances our understanding of daily life during that era. Overall, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an insightful glimpse into history. Its intricate details invite viewers to explore not only the craftsmanship but also contemplate deeper meanings hidden within each stroke of the engraver's tool.
