Were the twelve apos­tles guilty of over­eat­ing at the Last Sup­per?

Published by Friday, February 22, 2013 Permalink 0

by Jonell Galloway

For over a millennium, the portion sizes in paintings of The Last Supper have gradually increased. A recent study at Cornell University demonstrates that ever-increasing portions are no recent phenomenon. Click here to read the study. The painting below is by the Italian artist Duccio, from 1308-1311 A.D. “Note how the size of the food, bread, and plates on the ta­ble com­pare with the size of the heads of Je­sus and his dis­ci­ples,” compared to later versions of The Last Supper.

Meeta K. Wolff is a freelance food photographer, stylist and writer, currently living in the culturally rich city of Weimar in Germany with her German husband and their 8-year-old son, where she enjoys preparing multicultural, home-cooked meals using fresh organic ingredients. When she is not styling, photographing or writing about food, Meeta loves to travel the world, exploring new cultures and capturing it all on camera. The unique mood that Meeta creates in her food photography is also found in her travel, still life and landscape photography.

Born in India, Meeta was brought up in and went on to train in some of the world’s finest hotels, where food was always an important part of her life. Her love for food photography stems from her passion for food itself, and she combines her two greatest enthusiasms on her multifaceted, award-winning blog, What’s For Lunch, Honey? The recipes she develops and creates are documented by her powerful, yet refreshing, food photography and styling.

Food Poetry: Fame is a Fickle Food, by Emily Dickinson

Published by Sunday, February 17, 2013 Permalink 0

Fame is a Fickle Food

Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fame is a fickle food
Upon a shifting plate
Whose table once a
Guest but not
The second time is set
Whose crumbs the crows inspect
And with ironic caw
Flap past it to the
Farmer’s corn
Men eat of it and die

 

Emily Dickinson was born in 1830 and died in 1886. The Poetry Foundation describes her as “A poet who took definition as her province, Emily Dickinson challenged the existing definitions of poetry and the poet’s work. Like writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Walt Whitman, she experimented with expression in order to free it from conventional restraints.” Read more of Emily Dickinson’s biography on Poetry Foundation.
