EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cream seller (engraving)" by Francois Boucher takes us back to the 18th century streets of Paris. The image showcases a young girl, carrying a basket on her head filled with pots of cream, as she navigates through the bustling crowd. This historical engraving is part of Kulturgeschichtliches Bilderbuch aus drei Jahrhunderten, an illustrated book by Georg Hirth. The scene captures the essence of street life during that era, highlighting the working class and their occupations. The cries of Paris echo in the background as this little girl diligently carries out her trade. Her presence adds charm and innocence to this snapshot from history. As we delve into the details, we can appreciate how meticulously this digitally cleaned image has been restored. Every line and stroke brings forth a sense of authenticity and allows us to truly immerse ourselves in this French cultural moment. This artwork not only offers a glimpse into France's rich history but also sheds light on the significance of children's roles in society at that time. It reminds us that even at such tender ages, they were entrusted with responsibilities to contribute to their family's livelihood. Bridgeman Images has once again curated an exceptional piece from its collection, allowing us to travel back in time and experience a slice of life from centuries past.
