EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Paris bread carrier" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century France. The image captures a slice of everyday life in Paris as we witness a female bread carrier navigating through the crowded street. Laden with an array of freshly baked baguettes, she skillfully balances her load while gracefully making her way through the busy thoroughfare. The scene is filled with energy and movement, showcasing the vibrant street culture that defined Paris during this era. In the background, we catch glimpses of other workers going about their daily tasks, adding depth to this snapshot of urban life. The lithograph's monochromatic palette enhances its timeless quality, transporting us back to a bygone era where traditional craftsmanship was highly valued. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation of French society at that time. Published in 1878 by Rev. Samuel G. Green in his book "French Pictures" this particular print offers us a glimpse into an ordinary yet essential occupation - selling bread on the streets of Paris. It reminds us that even mundane activities can hold great significance when viewed through the lens of artistry and historical context. Displayed proudly in private collections today, this evocative image continues to captivate viewers with its depiction of hardworking individuals who played vital roles in shaping French culture and cuisine for generations to come.
