EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Drainage" captures a scene from 19th-century France, showcasing the hard work and dedication of workers in the agricultural sector. The image portrays a group of laborers diligently digging drains and ditches in the picturesque countryside. With their sleeves rolled up and shovels in hand, these workers are focused on improving drainage systems to enhance farming practices. The surveyor at the center of the composition adds an element of precision to this rural scene. Using a theodolite, he carefully surveys the land, ensuring that pipes are laid correctly for optimal drainage efficiency. This attention to detail highlights both the importance placed on agriculture and French expertise in this field. The photograph beautifully captures not only the physical labor involved but also provides insight into rural life during this period. It offers viewers a glimpse into French culture by depicting scenes specific to its agricultural traditions. Displayed within a private collection, this color lithograph is part of Valerie Jackson Harris' Look and Learn series. Its historical significance lies not only in documenting working conditions but also in preserving memories of traditional farming techniques employed centuries ago. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this moment frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and significance behind it.
