EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cross-section of industrial houses at Faubourg Saint-Antoine in Paris" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the living conditions of the working class. The illustration, originally featured in Le Magasin Pittoresque in 1885, showcases both private and public life intertwined within these unique industrial houses. The image reveals a cross-section view of the buildings, highlighting various floors filled with laborers diligently engaged in their work. It is fascinating to observe how communal housing was implemented here, as families lived alongside one another while sharing resources and facilities. A collective steam engine located in the basement stands out as a symbol of progress and innovation during that time. The presence of both male and female workers emphasizes gender equality within this utopian community. Artisans and craftsmen can be seen operating machines and workshops on different levels, showcasing their skills amidst an atmosphere buzzing with productivity. Situated in the vibrant 11th arrondissement on Rue des Immeubles Industriels, these industrial houses aimed to improve the lives of laborers by providing them with decent living spaces combined with convenient access to their workplaces. As we delve into this historical snapshot captured by French School artists from eArchives Charmet's collection at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, we are reminded of society's continuous pursuit for better working conditions for all individuals.
