EDITORS COMMENTS
The Dish Maker (engraving) captures the essence of 16th-century metalworking in Germany, showcasing the skilled craftsmanship and industriousness of the era. In this meticulously detailed print by Jost Amman, we are transported to a bustling workshop where workers laboriously mold and shape metal into exquisite dishes and bowls. The image depicts a group of dedicated artisans diligently working around a furnace, their hands deftly maneuvering tools and molds to create these functional works of art. The dish maker himself stands at the center, his focused expression reflecting years of experience honing his craft. Each worker plays an integral role in this intricate process, contributing to the production line that brings these beautiful pieces to life. This engraving is not merely a portrayal of historical industry but also serves as a testament to German culture during this period. It showcases the importance placed on manual labor and highlights how tradesmen were valued members of society.
