This engraving titled "Society of Noviomagians" offers a glimpse into the world of an exclusive club that thrived in 19th century London. The print, part of a private collection, showcases an invitation to the next meeting of the Society on 21 December 1864. The Society of Noviomagians was a distinguished group comprised mainly of members from the prestigious Society of Antiquaries of London. Their shared passion for archaeology and their love for all things comical and gastronomical brought them together in this unique social setting. The intricately detailed engraving depicts a scene filled with elegance and intellectual curiosity. It transports us back to a time when such societies were at the forefront of scientific exploration and cultural exchange. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded not only of the importance placed on knowledge during that era but also on camaraderie among like-minded individuals. The invitation serves as evidence that even amidst serious scholarly pursuits, there was room for laughter, good food, and conviviality. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into an exclusive world where minds met to discuss ancient artifacts while indulging in delightful banter over sumptuous meals. It is both fascinating and humbling to witness how these gatherings shaped our understanding of history and fostered lasting friendships among those who shared these passions. This enchanting print invites us to imagine ourselves as guests at one such gathering – surrounded by erudite conversation, delectable cuisine
