Food and Drink

This book is part of a series published by Dover Pictorial Archive Series. I contains a variety of pictures related to all types of food and drink and activities associated with eating and drinking. The pictures are especially good for a vintage touch to my collage work.

A superb collection of illustrations

The good book with tons of images of food, people eating food, food sitting on tables, silverware and anything else to deal with the preparation to the consumption of food. Nice illustrations with nice variety. Serious to whimsical. Do keep in mind that there are highly stylized images from the 1800's as the title mentions, so no "modern" elements involved. Jim Harter has compiled and excellent sourcebook for food and dring illustrations. I found it very helpful when putting together an menu mock-up for a client. Great book.
