This masterpiece, which measures century and is painted on canvas, showcases a panoramic view of various trades and industries, reflecting the social and economic landscape of the 19th century. The painting, which is now housed in the Petit Palais Museum in Paris, depicts a group of men from different trades, engaged in their work, with a sense of skill and dedication. The tradesmen, dressed in their traditional attire, are shown in various stages of production, from manufacturing to finishing, with each trade reflecting the artistic touch of Valton's brush. The painting is a testament to the importance of art in all aspects of life, including industry and trade. Valton's use of oil paint and rich colors adds depth and texture to the image, making it a visual feast for the eyes. The letterbox format of the painting allows for a detailed and immersive view of the tradesmen and their work, providing a glimpse into the lives of the workers of the 19th century. The painting also highlights the social class distinctions of the time, with the tradesmen depicted as hardworking and skilled laborers, a far cry from the privileged classes.
