EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour engraving from the 18th century showcases a scene of peasants and bourgeois engaging in the timeless tradition of dealing with wine. The print, titled "Peasants and bourgeois dealing with wine" beautifully captures the essence of grape harvest season. Amidst a picturesque vineyard adorned with lush trees, both men and women can be seen busily working together. Dressed in traditional costumes, they meticulously pick ripe grapes from the vines while wearing aprons to protect their attire. A sense of camaraderie fills the air as baskets overflow with freshly harvested fruit. In this idyllic setting, a male figure pours wine into a funnel attached to a barrel, symbolizing the process of winemaking. Meanwhile, another woman gracefully adorns her hair with a wreath made from vine leaves – an homage to nature's bounty surrounding them. The artist skillfully depicts every detail - from the intricate patterns on their dresses to the delicate leaves scattered across the ground. This engraving not only celebrates hard work but also highlights moments of joy and celebration as some individuals are shown enjoying glasses filled with this precious beverage. Preserved by Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this enchanting print offers us an exquisite glimpse into rural life during that era. It serves as a reminder of our deep-rooted connection to nature and how it has shaped our cultural practices throughout history.
