EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Selling Persian Carpets in Le Printemps," offers a glimpse into the rich history of international trade and the allure of Eastern treasures in late 19th-century France. The photograph, taken in 1907, depicts a bustling scene within the hallowed halls of Le Printemps, a renowned French department store. Persian carpets, renowned for their intricate designs and luxurious materials, are being displayed and sold to an eager crowd of shoppers. The store's elegant interior, with its high ceilings, ornate moldings, and large windows bathed in natural light, creates an air of sophistication and exclusivity. The Persian carpets, with their vibrant colors and intricate patterns, add a touch of exoticism and allure to the space. The salesmen, dressed in formal attire, expertly guide customers through the selection, pointing out the unique features of each piece. The trade of Persian carpets in Europe dates back to the Middle Ages, with the first recorded exports occurring in the 16th century. The carpets were highly prized for their beauty and craftsmanship, and their popularity only grew as European travelers returned from the Middle East with samples. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, department stores like Le Printemps had become major players in the trade, importing carpets directly from Persia and selling them to the masses. This print serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of Persian carpets and the role they played in the cultural exchange between the East and West. It also offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of retail and the evolution of department stores as hubs of commerce and consumer culture.
