EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rag Collectors, 1870" takes us back to the bustling streets of New York City during the Victorian era. The image depicts a group of rag gatherers diligently starting their labor in the early hours of the morning. In order to support themselves and their families, these collectors scoured through gutters, dust barrels, and refuse boxes for discarded rags. The engraving beautifully captures both the historical significance and illustrative technique of that time period. The fine details showcased in this vintage piece transport us into an era where arts and culture thrived amidst challenging circumstances. As we gaze upon this retro-styled photograph, we can't help but feel a sense of admiration for these hardworking individuals who faced sharp rivalry in their trade. Their dedication to making ends meet is evident as they navigate through the crowded streets with determination etched on their faces. The Liszt Collection has once again brought history to life with this engraved image from 1870s America. It serves as a reminder of our past struggles and triumphs while honoring those who paved the way for future generations. Let this print be a window into our collective heritage, reminding us of how far we have come as a society.
