Feast & Fast The Art of Food in Europe, 1500-1800

Feast & Fast The Art of Food in Europe, 1500-1800 by Victoria Avery, published by Bloomsbury USA in 2020.

Food defines us as individuals, communities, and nations - we are what we eat and, equally, what we don't eat. When, where, why, how and with whom we eat are crucial to our identity. Feast and Fast presents novel approaches to understanding the history and culture of food and eating in early modern Europe. This richly illustrated book will showcase hidden and newly-conserved treasures from the Fitzwilliam Museum and other collections in and around Cambridge.

A lovely addition to your coffee table or bookshelf, and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves food and cooking.
