EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history on the banks of the Seine River in Paris. Titled "Déchargement du Fer sur le Quai Saint-Bernard à Paris" (Iron Blocks Discharged by the Dockers on the Seine River Banks on the Quai Saint-Bernard in Paris), it is a drawing by Gustave Fraipont, an artist known for his detailed depictions of everyday life. The scene depicts dockers unloading iron blocks from a barge onto the quay, showcasing their physical strength and laborious work. The bustling activity along the riverbank highlights both human industry and French industrialization during this period. Fraipont's drawing is based on "La Seine à Travers Paris" by Saint-Juirs, published in 1890. It offers viewers a glimpse into late 19th-century France, with its intricate details capturing not only the workers but also providing a view of the cityscape beyond. This particular print is part of a private collection owned by Fraipont himself. The photograph itself exudes authenticity and historical significance, transporting us back to an era where manual labor played a vital role in shaping societies. With its emphasis on metalwork, human endeavor, and urban landscapes, this image serves as a powerful reminder of France's rich cultural heritage during that time.
