About the Item
Jules Gouffe (1807-1877)
Le Livre de Cusine
Librairie Hachette et Cie
Paris, 1867
Chromolithographs
At the age of 16, Jules Gouffe found his calling as a student of the famous Lent. Gouffe surpassed his master to become an icon of culinary splendor.
This classical work on French cooking is truly a masterpiece both for its recipes and illustrations. With 25 color images and 165 black and white embedded in the text, there was no mistaking the high standards of preparation. A rather adventurous book, it applied instruction to both the domestic and superior kitchen. It would thus be a guide to both the household cook and the highest ranking chef.
Spectacular in both ingredients and composition, it is only fitting to portray the finished dish as a work of art. Appetizer to main course to dessert is shown in the fullest regalia. Approaching a still-life quality, it could be said that many of the dishes look too good to eat!
Written in the narrative structure, Gouffe breaks the single paragraph-long recipe into many, each containing great detail as to ingredients. While quantities are listed, they are mostly within the context of the description and not separated into a separate section. This perhaps verbose style of cookbook has had a bit of a renaissance in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries where the writer is somewhat directly conversing with his audience.
Unparalleled for its beautiful composition of the finished dish, it is to this day unequaled in the matter of practical exactness and painstaking minuteness of detail.

- Balmoral - Signed Lithograph, Royal Art, Royal Homes, Balmoral Castle, BritishBy Charles (Prince of Wales)Located in Knowle Lane, CranleighBalmoral by His Majesty King Charles III (formerly known as HRH Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales) - Hand Signed Limited Edition Lithograph. Belgravia Gallery has been honoured to be associated with the artworks of HRH The Prince of Wales for over 25 years. Anna Hunter, gallery owner, wrote a handwritten letter to the Prince asking him if he would consider making signed lithographs from his beautiful watercolours which could be sold in aid of his charities. The gallery subsequently worked with the Prince for over 10 years publishing some 18 different editions and raising over £4million for the Prince’s Charitable Foundation. Lithographs were made from the Prince’s original watercolours under the guidance of Stanley Jones – a celebrated printmaker who had previously worked with Henry Moore for 30 years, and with Elizabeth Frink, David Hockney and others. Each one is hand-signed. “…One thing I have discovered in the course of my painting efforts is that Balmoral Castle...Category
