EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century offers a glimpse into the diverse world of work and occupations in Ancient Greece. The illustration, part of Bilder-Atlas, showcases the rich tapestry of jobs and employment that existed during this historical period. In this intricate scene, we witness various individuals engaged in their respective trades. A farmer with a walking stick tends to his crops while accompanied by his loyal hound. Nearby, a fisherman casts his net into the sea, hoping for a bountiful catch. The presence of chariots and horses hints at transportation-related occupations such as charioteers or horse-drawn carriage drivers. The agricultural theme is prevalent throughout the image, with oxen ploughing fields under the watchful eye of a ploughman. Farmhouses and farm buildings dotting the landscape emphasize the importance of farming as an occupation in Ancient Greece. Not limited to land-based activities alone, hunting also played a significant role in ancient society. State hunting scenes depict hunters alongside their trusty hounds chasing after deer or other wild animals. Overall, this print serves as both an educational tool and artistic representation of life's many facets during Ancient Greece. It reminds us that work has always been an integral part of human existence across different cultures and time periods.
