EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "A kernels dealer in 1774 (walnuts) - Walnut Seller in 1774" takes us back to the bustling streets of France during the 18th century. The image showcases a woman at work, donning an apron and a traditional costume of that era. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the essence of street trade as the walnut seller carries a bucket filled with these delectable nuts. Her face reflects determination and resilience as she navigates through the busy crowd, offering her goods to potential customers. The engraving captures not only the woman's occupation but also provides insight into French commerce during this period. It serves as a reminder of how street vendors played an essential role in meeting the needs of the growing population. Beyond its historical significance, this print offers a glimpse into everyday life and culture from centuries ago. The attention to detail highlights both botany and natural history aspects, emphasizing how food was intertwined with science even then. Preserved within a private collection today, this anonymous artwork allows us to appreciate the metier of women who contributed to society through their entrepreneurial spirit. As we admire this piece by Photo Josse, it is evident that it transcends time by capturing not just one individual's story but also representing an entire era marked by innovation and progress.
