EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating process of tapping rubber trees. The promotional advertising card for Veritable Extrait de Viande Liebig showcases a vibrant colour litho image created by the French School in the 19th century. In this scene, we witness workers diligently incising the bark of towering rubber trees in order to extract their precious sap. With axes in hand and baskets at their feet, they navigate through lush jungles and dense forests, collecting gum from these invaluable natural resources. The gathering and harvesting of rubber was an essential part of early industrialization, providing materials for various industries around the world. The image beautifully captures both the beauty and laborious nature of this process. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness as well as our deep connection with nature's bounty. Each worker plays a crucial role in ensuring that every drop of sap is carefully collected for further processing. As we admire this historical photograph, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also reflect on how far we have come since then. This advertisement card reminds us of our reliance on natural resources while encouraging us to consider sustainable practices for future generations.
