EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a Vannier's tool used for making basketballs. The image is part of "The Great Encyclopedie, ou Dictionnaire Raisonne des Sciences, des Arts et des Metiers" by Denis Diderot and Jean d'Alembert, two influential figures from the 18th century. This encyclopedia was a comprehensive collection of knowledge on various subjects including arts, sciences, and professions. The craftsmanship displayed in this photograph is truly awe-inspiring. The intricate details of the handle and basketry instrument highlight the skill and precision required to create such tools during that era. It serves as a testament to the dedication and expertise possessed by craftsmen back then. As we admire this image, we are transported back in time to an age where every profession had its own specialized tools. This particular tool would have been essential for Vanniers - skilled artisans who crafted baskets used for various purposes. Through Stefano Bianchetti's lens, we get a glimpse into the past - an era when encyclopedias were not just sources of information but also works of art themselves. This print captures not only the essence of French craftsmanship but also pays homage to historical figures who sought to compile knowledge for future generations. In conclusion, this mesmerizing print immortalizes an important artifact from history while reminding us of the invaluable contributions made by craftsmen like Vanniers in shaping our world today.
