EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, dated circa 1760, showcases a collection of intricately designed Diderot hives and other apicultural appliances. Named after their inventor, Jean-Baptiste Greuze Diderot, these hives were a significant advancement in beekeeping during the 18th century. The hives in this print are adorned with elaborate carvings and intricate designs, reflecting the artisanal craftsmanship of the time. The central hive in the print is a classic Diderot hive, characterized by its tall, cylindrical shape and removable sections. The hive's design allowed beekeepers to easily access the combs, making honey harvesting more efficient and less invasive for the bees. The hive's exterior was often decorated with intricate designs, as seen in this print, to enhance the aesthetic appeal. Surrounding the Diderot hive are various apicultural appliances, including a smoker, a honey extractor, and a bee brush. The smoker, used to calm the bees before harvesting, is depicted with a bellows and a container filled with smoldering materials. The honey extractor, a device used to extract honey from the combs, is shown with a crank and a series of buckets. The bee brush, used to gently remove bees from surfaces, is depicted as a simple, flat-headed tool. This print offers a glimpse into the world of 18th-century beekeeping, showcasing the beauty and intricacy of the Diderot hive and other apicultural appliances. The attention to detail in the print reflects the importance of beekeeping during this time and the pride taken in the craft.
