EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The File" captures a moment in the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing the work of a French metalworker. The chromolitho image, part of a private collection, depicts an educational card that sheds light on the trade and craftsmanship involved in metalwork. In this scene, we see a dedicated worker engrossed in his job at his cluttered workbench. With intense focus, he expertly maneuvers a file against a piece of metal, skillfully shaping it to perfection. The vice clamped onto the table holds the material firmly in place as he meticulously works on it. Surrounded by tools and equipment specific to his craft, this tradesman showcases the dedication and precision required for successful metalworking. It is evident that every detail matters to him as he strives for excellence. Interestingly enough, amidst all these industrial elements lies an unexpected twist - an advertisement for Chocolat Guerin Boutron. Perhaps this chocolate brand was popular among workers during their breaks or served as motivation throughout their laborious tasks. "The File" offers us a glimpse into both skilled craftsmanship and everyday life during this era. Through its intricate details and historical context, this print serves as a fascinating reminder of how different trades shaped society's development while also highlighting small pleasures like indulging in chocolates from time to time.
