EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century transports us to the heart of French wine country. The image, part of a private collection, depicts the intricate process of making wine during the summer season. It was originally featured in "Bebe Devient Savant" by Madame Doudet, published in Paris around 1875. The scene showcases an agricultural masterpiece as workers diligently tend to lush vineyards, surrounded by vibrant green pastures. With meticulous precision and scientific methods, they press grapes harvested from bountiful vines that stretch across the landscape. This illustration beautifully captures both the artistry and science behind viticulture. The rich red hues of ripe fruit evoke a sense of anticipation for the delicious beverage that will soon be enjoyed worldwide. As we delve into this historical piece, we are reminded of France's prominent role in European winemaking traditions. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print offers a glimpse into rural life during the late 19th century. It serves as a testament to hardworking individuals who dedicated their lives to cultivating nature's bounty and producing one of humanity's oldest indulgences – wine. With its attention to detail and botanical accuracy, this engraving is not only a work of art but also an invaluable historical document showcasing early agricultural practices in France. Bridgeman Images has preserved this treasure for all enthusiasts of history and oenology alike to appreciate for generations to come.
