EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historic print captures the "Procession of the Chair Manufacturers at Strasbourg" on the 25th of June, 1840. Created by Frederic Emile Simon, a renowned French artist, this colour lithograph showcases a significant moment in industrial history. The image depicts a lively parade filled with members of various associations and trade unions. The procession is led by skilled craftsmen known as tourneurs or chair manufacturers, proudly displaying their expertise in chair-making. Their banners flutter in the wind, symbolizing unity and pride within their guild. The scene exudes an atmosphere of camaraderie and celebration among workers from different backgrounds who have come together to honor their craft. It serves as a testament to the importance of collaboration and mutual support within artisan communities during that era. Displayed at Musee Nat. des Arts et Traditions Populaires in Paris, France, this artwork offers us a glimpse into both historical craftsmanship and social dynamics prevalent during the mid-19th century. As we admire this piece today, it reminds us of the rich heritage left behind by these dedicated artisans.
