Book Synopsis Food and Feasting in Art by : Silvia Malaguzzi
Book excerpt: Malaguzzi's work describes the significance of food and feasts through the ages and discusses how artists have created allegories of gluttony and odes to the sense of taste, using, for example, artfully positioned fruits and vegetables in the still-life genre in painting.
