EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a reverse copy of "Au Vinaigre (Vinegar), from Le Cris de Paris (The Cries of Paris)" by Simon Francois Ravenet. Created in the 18th century, this engraving showcases the bustling streets of France during that era. The scene depicts a young man pushing a barrow filled with barrels of vinegar, while a woman stands nearby observing his profession. The artwork is attributed to renowned French artist Francois Boucher, known for his Rococo style and attention to detail. This particular piece is part of a series called "Le Cris de Paris" which portrays various street sellers and their occupations in 18th-century Paris. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this reverse copy offers us an intriguing glimpse into the daily life and jobs that shaped the country's history. The etching beautifully captures the essence of this period, showcasing both male and female figures engaged in their respective roles. Simon Francois Ravenet skillfully reproduced Boucher's original work through his own artistic lens, adding depth and texture to every stroke. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder not only of our rich heritage but also how professions have evolved over time.
