This print showcases a remarkable engraving titled "Machine a broyer le lin" by the French School of the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, depicts an intricate machine used for crushing linen fibers. This powerful illustration was originally created as an accompaniment to Paul Poire's renowned book "La France Industrielle" published by Hachette in 1873.

It serves as a testament to the country's rich history of innovation and technological advancements. The finely detailed machinery depicted in this engraving highlights the importance of linen production during that time.
