National Library of France: Medieval Gastronomy in Images

Curated by ACT

An interesting look at medieval art that depicts a facet of ordinary life: eating. Organized into three sections on food, cooking, and meals, this online exhibit tells us much about the medieval diet, the value of certain foods, the methods and tools of preparation, and last, but not least, mealtime as enjoyed by peasants, nobility, and religious.
