EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Mobile ironer. To iron the razors, the scissors!" depicts a scene from around 1819 in France. The image showcases a street vendor diligently sharpening knives and scissors on a large stone wheel. Measuring 42.5x32.5 cm, this artwork is part of a private collection. The print belongs to "The small street trades, Printing and Image Factory of Delhalt" which operated between 1819 and 1882 under the guidance of Roy and Thomas Metz. It was deposited with Auguste Godchaux and Cie, publishers located at 66 rue des Tournelles in Paris. This piece offers an intriguing glimpse into the world of early nineteenth-century French street vendors who made their living through manual labor. The lone worker depicted here represents the working class or proletariat, highlighting social divisions within society during that time. The artist's attention to detail is evident in capturing not only the worker but also his tools - razors, scissors, and a grinding wheel - all essential for his trade. This image serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of this particular profession. Through its composition and subject matter, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on themes such as employment, craftsmanship, social classes, and European history during the nineteenth century. © Jean Duvallon's masterful photography brings this moment from history to life while preserving it for future generations to appreciate its significance within art history.
