EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Distillers, 1751-1777" is a remarkable piece of art created by the talented artist Denis Diderot. The print originates from the renowned Encyclopedie, ou Dictionnaire Raisonne des Sciences, des Arts et des Metiers by Diderot & d'Alembert, spanning from 1751 to 1777. The image takes us back to the heart of a traditional distillery in 18th century France. It beautifully captures the essence of craftsmanship as we witness skilled distillers meticulously tending to their craft. Inside this rustic brewery, amidst billowing smoke and flickering flames from the furnace, these dedicated artisans work diligently with their tools and equipment. Through this monochrome engraving, we gain insight into the intricate process of distillation. Vats line the walls while sunlight streams through windows onto their workstations. This illustration transports us to a time when brandy production was an essential occupation in French society. Denis Diderot's attention to detail brings life to every element within this scene - from the bustling activity inside this typical country distillery to each individual's focused expression. This artwork serves as a testament not only to Diderot's artistic prowess but also his dedication towards documenting various professions during that era. As it now resides in a private collection, this print continues its journey through time as an invaluable representation of historical craftsmanship and French culture in the eighteenth century.
