1537 Occupation Potter Pottery Vergil Working Workshop Polydore Polydorus
EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from 1537 showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of a potter in an early German workshop. The image, taken from a German translation of Polydore Vergil's De Inventoribus Rerum, transports us back to a time when skilled artisans shaped clay into beautiful pottery. In this intimate interior scene, we see a man fully engrossed in his occupation as he works diligently at his potter's wheel. His hands expertly mold the clay, bringing life to his creations with each careful touch. The concentration on his face reflects the passion and dedication that goes into perfecting this ancient craft. The rustic setting adds authenticity to the scene, with wooden beams overhead and tools scattered around the workshop. This glimpse into the potter's world allows us to appreciate not only the final product but also the process behind it. Polydore Vergil's work serves as a reminder of how essential inventors are in shaping our society throughout history. By immortalizing this moment through woodcut printing, Granger Art on Demand preserves both artistic technique and cultural heritage for future generations to admire. This remarkable print captures not just an occupation but also tells a story of creativity, skill, and human ingenuity that has stood the test of time.
