The image showcases a skilled craftsman scraping a fresh hide over a log in his workshop, circa 1580. Every detail is meticulously captured by Jost Amman's woodcut technique, allowing us to appreciate the dedication and precision required for this ancient trade. The tanner, surrounded by tools of his trade, focuses intently on his task. His weathered hands expertly maneuver the scraper across the hide, revealing glimpses of smooth leather beneath. The log serves as both support and guide for this delicate process, highlighting the resourcefulness of craftsmen during that era. This print not only captures an intimate moment in history but also pays homage to forgotten trades that have shaped our world. It reminds us of the countless hours spent perfecting skills passed down through generations solely by men like him.
