"A journey through the evolution of Western dining",
By
This review is from: Feeding Desire: Design and the Tools of the Table, 1500-2005 (Hardcover)
From contemporary food design to the spectacle of eighteenth-century aristocratic feasts, this book examines the history of cutlery and dining ritual. A broad offering of [great, beautiful] pictures, and collection of texts that explore the social meanings and fascinating forms of table settings. A truly fascinating book. Somewhat specific, but highly recommended!

This review is from: Feeding Desire: Design and the Tools of the Table, 1500-2005 (Hardcover)
It is a brilliant, well crafted and informative book. The illustrations are beautiful. A remarkable and interesting reference book. It was a really pleasant surprised when it arrived. Great cultural notes and psychology of dining. A niche book that transcends its genre spectacularly. |
