In 1883 painter Viktor Vasnetsov (1848-1926) famous for his folklore romantic style designed and decorated the food menu for the coronation of Russian Tsar Alexander III.

Even if you can’t read in Russian and you’re not able to find out what exactly the list of dishes was, these layouts themselves are truly stunning artwork.

Enjoy!
