Framed Antique 1896 Victorian Cookery Illustration "Cold Salmon Soufflé" from Cassell's New Universal Cookery Book by Lizzie Heritage

This charming framed Victorian cookery illustration dates from 1896 and originates from Cassell's New Universal Cookery Book, one of the most widely used household cookery references of the late Victorian period. The print depicts an elaborately decorated celebration cake, beautifully presented with floral details and rich colours that capture the elegance and theatricality of Victorian entertaining.

Presented in a mustard yellow frame, the illustration has a warm and cheerful character that makes it particularly appealing for kitchens, dining rooms, breakfast nooks, or pantry spaces. The soft vintage colours work beautifully alongside antique kitchenware, blue and white ceramics, vintage cookbooks, and other framed culinary prints, helping to create a layered and collected interior.

There is something especially appealing about historic food illustrations. They offer a glimpse into the tastes, aspirations, and visual culture of another era while bringing personality and conversation to a wall. The detailed artwork and period styling make this a delightful decorative piece for anyone who enjoys cooking, baking, entertaining, or collecting Victorian ephemera.

Measures 21 x 16 x 1 cm. The frame is ready to display and presents the print beautifully, making it an easy addition to a gallery wall or shelf styling arrangement.
