This photo print, titled "Silk and Silkworm in China: Separation of the worm that wants to spin" takes us back to 19th century China. The engraving, featured in the renowned publication "La Nature: revue des sciences et de leurs applications aux arts et a l industrie" on August 11,1888, showcases an unknown artist's skillful depiction of a significant moment in Chinese agriculture. In this scene, we witness a young girl diligently engaged in her work with silkworms. With focused determination, she carefully separates the worms that are eager to spin their delicate silk cocoons. This process is crucial for harnessing the incredible manufacturing technology behind silk production. The image not only highlights the intricate artistry involved but also offers a glimpse into traditional Chinese breeding techniques. The woman's presence signifies how women played an integral role in this industry as well. As we delve into this historical artwork by Stefano Bianchetti from his private collection, we are transported to another time and place where ancient traditions intertwine with innovation. The inclusion of Chinese characters further emphasizes the cultural significance of this practice.
