EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from c.1880 showcases the intricate process of paper making, specifically the washing of rags in a machine used for cotton paper production. The image is part of a collection titled "Grands hommes et grands faits de l'industrie" (Great men and great achievements of industry) in France, highlighting the importance of innovation and technology in the industrial sector. In this scene, we see the inner workings of a factory where workers are diligently operating machinery to transform raw materials into usable paper products. The text inscriptions add an educational element to the print, providing insight into the various aspects of paper making and its significance in society. The depiction of working-class individuals laboring in this industrial setting serves as a reminder of the vital role they play in driving economic growth and productivity. It also underscores the interconnectedness between different social classes within the economy. Overall, this print captures not only the technical expertise required for paper production but also sheds light on broader themes such as class dynamics, economic systems, and technological advancements that shape our world today.
