EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Upside down world: oxen driving plough pulled by farmer, 19th century" takes us back to a whimsical era of the past. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this Epinal print showcases a satirical and imaginative scene where everything is turned upside down. In this enchanting illustration, we see an oxen-driven plough being guided by a farmer who defies gravity as he stands on his head. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this fantastical world to life, capturing our attention and sparking our imagination. The humor and legend behind this artwork are evident as it depicts an imaginary country where animals take charge of agricultural tasks while humans play supporting roles. This satirical cartoon challenges traditional notions of farming practices and invites viewers to question societal norms. The skillful engraving technique used in creating this piece adds depth and texture to every stroke, enhancing its visual appeal. The artist's mastery shines through in their ability to blend satire with creativity seamlessly. As we delve into the late nineteenth-century France depicted here, we are transported into a realm where anything is possible - even if it means turning the world upside down. This thought-provoking print reminds us that art has no boundaries when it comes to expressing ideas or challenging conventions.
