EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating aquatint print that takes us back to the late 18th century streets of France. Created by Pierre Leveille after Antoine Borel in 1795, this artwork showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of French artists during that era. In this bustling street scene, we see an exterior view filled with men and women going about their daily lives. The central focus is on a charismatic salesman, known as "The Charlatan" who captivates his audience with his persuasive words and gestures. His presence exudes confidence and charm as he peddles his wares to curious passersby. The attention to detail in this aquatint is remarkable, capturing the essence of the time period perfectly. From the fashion choices of both men and women to the architecture of the buildings lining the street, every element transports us back to 1795 France. This particular piece belongs to The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, which features artworks depicting various aspects of life from different historical periods. It serves as a reminder of how patent medicine salesmen like "The Charlatan" were prevalent during that time, promising miraculous cures for all ailments. "The Charlatan" print allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also provides insight into French society at that time. It serves as a window into history and reminds us of how certain practices have evolved over centuries while others remain unchanged.
