Assorted cheeses
Lithograph, published 1907
 

From Mrs. Beeton’s Book of Household Management, published in 1907, is presented a variety of European cheeses, labelled as part of an informative display. The book introduced British households to both familiar and continental foods as part of a broader effort to organise domestic life. It reflected late Victorian interest in food knowledge and classification, with this particular illustration showing how cheese was both a staple and a subject of cultural significance.
