Just devoured #FeastFast @FitzMuseum_UK So many beautiful surprising things. Here are some of my favourites. 1/ This kind-eyed 17thC Dutch waffle temptress...
Several amazing animal details in van Swanevelt& #39;s 17thC Campo Vaccino, Rome, not least this dog energetically crapping ...
More from the Campo Vaccino, this unfortunate and gigantic wild boar. Its grunts of protest don& #39;t seem to concern the semi-naked man in the foreground.
More large hogs being poked, an enraged bullock and other livestock in the Campo Vaccino...
4 / This vibrant Dutch still life with fruit & macaws. Masterstroke is the foolhardy fly top centre! All @FitzMuseum_UK collection so far, BTW. #FeastFast
5 / This ice cream spaddle and sorbetier from Gunter& #39;s of Berkeley Sq (probably early 19thC). Enough said.
6 / This very trendy 1639 & #39;Clapmash& #39; bowl with pomegranates, grapes & foliage which could have been made in Southwark ... or maybe the Netherlands.
This #18thcentury Netherlands market stall mainly because I love chestnuts ... and the detail up close is incredible. Again, @FitzMuseum_UK collection.
8 / These sensational 16thC Venetian storage jars which make me realise I really need more fruit pickle in my life... and priceless ceramics. I& #39;d keep mango chutney in them.
9 / van Mieris the Elder proclaiming there& #39;s no such thing as an innocently slurped oyster. @FitzMuseum_UK collection. #FeastFast
10 / Some of the most beautiful rotting fruit I& #39;ve ever seen. Well done Abraham Mignon, Utrecht, c.1670. @FitzMuseum_UK collection #FeastFast
11 / And finally, this stunningly sculptural spitjack, made in England around 1770. I hope this thread gives a flavour (sorry!) of the surprising treasures in #FeastFast . I& #39;ll be going back for a second helping.
I also think #FeastFast offers one of the most original and moving exhibition films I& #39;ve seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=11&v=g_BbPLtqelA&feature=emb_logo">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
