EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases the process of firing bricks, providing a glimpse into the construction industry of that era. The print, part of a private collection, is an illustration taken from "Bebe Devient Savant" by Madame Doudet (Theodore Lefevre) published in Paris around 1875. In this image, we see workers diligently engaged in their craft at a brick factory in France. The vibrant colours bring to life the bustling atmosphere and hard work involved in manufacturing these essential building materials. The oven or kiln used for firing the bricks stands prominently in the background, emitting warmth and intensity. The historical significance of this artwork lies not only in its portrayal of early construction techniques but also as a testament to female empowerment within trades during that time period. Amongst the workers depicted are women who break traditional gender roles by actively participating in manual labor alongside their male counterparts. As we admire this piece, we are transported back to an age where craftsmanship and dedication were valued above all else. It serves as a reminder of how far our modern construction industry has come while paying homage to those who laid its foundations. This print captures both history and artistry with its intricate details and rich hues – truly a remarkable addition to any fine art collection.
