EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into a silkworm rearing establishment. The intricate details of this illustration transport us to a time when the silk industry was thriving and highly regarded. The image showcases the meticulous process of raising silkworms, highlighting the dedication and skill required in this delicate art form. The engraver has masterfully captured every aspect of the establishment, from the workers tending to the worms to the carefully arranged trays housing them. As we study this print, we can't help but marvel at how much effort went into producing such luxurious fabric. It serves as a reminder that behind every beautiful piece of silk lies an intricate web of labor and craftsmanship. This particular engraving was featured in Wonderland or Curiosities of Nature and Art by Wood Smith, published in 1897. Its inclusion in this publication speaks volumes about its significance during that era. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with an extraordinary piece from their collection. Through their careful curation, they continue to bring historical moments like these back to life for our enjoyment and education.
