EDITORS COMMENTS
The Baker (engraving) captures the essence of medieval baking, showcasing the skills and customs of a 16th-century baker. This print from the French School, dating back to the 19th century, takes us on a journey through time into a bustling bakery shop. In this scene, we witness an early craftsman diligently working in his oven-lit domain. The baker's expertise is evident as he skillfully prepares loaves of white bread, essential for sustaining the food supply during that era. With focused determination and precision, he kneads and shapes each dough with meticulous care. The engraving not only highlights the artistry involved in baking but also provides insight into the manners and dress prevalent during the Middle Ages. It serves as an illustration for Paul Lacroix's renowned book on Manners, Customs, and Dress during that period. Juxtaposed against a backdrop of Renaissance influences, this image by J. Amman showcases how gastronomy played a vital role in society centuries ago. As we admire this digitally cleaned masterpiece from Look and Learn's private collection via Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, it reminds us of our rich culinary heritage rooted in age-old traditions. This enchanting depiction invites us to appreciate both craftsmanship and history while celebrating one of humanity's oldest industries – baking.
