EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Paris in the 15th century. The image showcases a Parisian printing house, where skilled craftsmen and women diligently work on their printing presses. The scene is filled with activity as workers can be seen operating various machines and instruments, each playing a crucial role in the intricate process of printing. Amidst this organized chaos, a young girl catches our attention as she carefully handles sheets of paper, her delicate hands embodying the importance of precision and detail in this labor-intensive craft. The engraving captures not only the physicality of human labor but also offers a glimpse into French society during that era. It serves as a testament to the significance of print media even then, as it was instrumental in disseminating knowledge and shaping public opinion. As we admire this historical snapshot, we are transported to an atelier where creativity meets craftsmanship. This medium age masterpiece from an anonymous artist's private collection reminds us of how far we have come technologically while honoring those who laid the foundation for modern-day printing techniques. With its rich history and cultural significance, this print by Photo Josse allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such masterpieces and the impact they had on society during one of France's most transformative periods - truly capturing a moment frozen in time.
