EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Broom merchant and boilermaker - in 'The costumes of Paris through the centuries'" takes us back to 19th century France, showcasing the rich history and vibrant street trade of Paris. The image captures a moment frozen in time, revealing two individuals immersed in their respective trades. On the left side of the frame stands a broom merchant, proudly displaying his wares. His weathered face tells tales of hard work and perseverance as he skillfully presents his brooms to potential customers passing by. The intricate details captured by Leonard de Selva's lens highlight not only the man's dedication but also the craftsmanship that went into creating these essential household tools. On the right side, we see a boilermaker engrossed in his work. With sleeves rolled up and intense focus on his task at hand, he embodies determination and expertise. This skilled artisan is responsible for shaping metal into boilers used for various purposes during that era. Together, these two figures represent different facets of life in 19th century Paris – one involved in everyday domestic needs while the other contributed to industrial advancements. Their presence reminds us of how society relied on such tradespeople who played vital roles within their communities. Through this remarkable engraving brought to life by Leonard de Selva's artistic vision, we are transported back to an era where traditional crafts thrived amidst a rapidly changing world.
