The Stampede for Dinner on the Public Promenade at Colombo, Ceylon, when the Final Piece begins
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving by English School from the 19th century captures a bustling scene on the public promenade in Colombo, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The image portrays a moment of excitement and anticipation as dinner is about to be served. The streets are filled with people from all walks of life, eagerly making their way towards the final piece. The atmosphere is electric with energy as locals and visitors alike rush through the crowded thoroughfare. Transport options such as horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws can be seen amidst this stampede. The vibrant street scenes depicted in this artwork provide a glimpse into daily life in colonial-era Ceylon. It showcases not only the diverse mix of cultures but also highlights how food brings people together regardless of their backgrounds. Colombo's public promenade serves as a melting pot where different communities converge, creating an enchanting blend of Asian cultures. This print beautifully captures that essence - it celebrates both local Sri Lankan traditions and influences from other parts of Asia. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness this lively spectacle unfold before our eyes. It reminds us of the power that food holds in uniting people and igniting joyous moments even amidst chaos. This remarkable engraving is part of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection and offers us a window into history while celebrating
