Despite sometimes being referred to as the Dark Ages, during the Middle Ages people often enjoyed good times, especially at the table. Through art and archaeology, learn about medieval foods and their preparation (including a recipe for roast unicorn!) as well as the rules and ceremonies under which these sumptuous foods were presented, and the types of entertainment guests might enjoy. Works from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Met’s Cloisters Museum will highlight this talk.
Presenter Mike Norris has a Ph.D. in Art History from the University of California at Santa Barbara. He spent twenty years at the Cloisters Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and has lectured on trips all over the world. He lives in Teaneck, New Jersey.
