This print titled "Money making: rolling and cutting" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the intricate process of coin manufacturing. The engraving featured in "Le Monde Illustre" on January 21,1860, showcases the laborious work undertaken by skilled artisans in an atelier. In this image, we see a dedicated laborer meticulously operating a mechanism that rolls and cuts coins with precision. Every movement is deliberate as he carefully crafts each piece of currency. The engraver's focus is evident as he works diligently to create these essential instruments of trade. The photograph captures not only the physicality of this task but also highlights the significance of money-making during that era. It reminds us of how much effort was required to produce even a single coin. Stefano Bianchetti's composition transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry and technological advancements involved in minting money.

As we observe this historical scene frozen in time, it prompts reflection on our modern-day relationship with money - its value, production methods, and societal implications.
