EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Buy Mills, 1737-1742" by Bouchardon takes us back to the bustling streets of 18th century France. The image showcases a street vendor, a French man with an air of charisma, selling toy windmills from his basket. Part of the renowned series called Paris Street Cries, this engraving captures the essence of everyday life in that era. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he beautifully portrays the windmill seller amidst a crowd of people going about their daily routines. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing the historical significance and cultural context. It transports us to an era where toys like these windmills brought joy and amusement to both children and adults alike. As we gaze at this print, we can almost hear the cries of Paris echoing through time – vendors calling out their wares in hopes of attracting customers. Bouchardon skillfully captures not only a moment frozen in time but also provides us with a glimpse into French society during this period. This artwork serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, simple pleasures like these toy windmills played an important role in bringing happiness and excitement to people's lives.
