This print showcases "The marriage feast at Cana" from the early 14th century. Created by an unknown artist, this piece was featured in the book "Life Among the English" by Rose Macaulay, published in 1942. The image is a part of the Queen Mary Psalter, housed in the British Library in London. In this vibrant scene, we witness a grand banquet filled with people from all walks of life.

The painting captures both religious and social aspects of medieval England. It depicts an important biblical event where Jesus performed his first miracle by turning water into wine at a wedding feast.
