EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the late 18th century, titled "The Game of Agriculture and Commerce" takes us back in time to witness a vibrant scene of economic activity. Created by the French School, this print showcases a bustling world of trade and agriculture. Intricately detailed, the image presents an array of elements that symbolize different aspects of commerce. A ship sails gracefully on calm waters while a cart loaded with goods makes its way along a dusty road. A boat carrying barrels glides past, hinting at the transportation of valuable cargo. Amidst fields filled with crops and cornstalks, beehives stand as symbols of productivity and wealth derived from nature's bounty. The game board itself becomes a stage for economic transactions, adorned with numbers representing various financial exchanges. Livestock such as sheep graze peacefully nearby while anchors symbolize stability and security in trade. Wheat sheaves are neatly bundled alongside fruit baskets and sacks brimming with goods - all waiting to be transported to eager customers. This enchanting engraving not only captures the essence of commerce but also serves as entertainment for those who appreciate artistry intertwined with economics. Preserved within France's Bibliotheque Nationale archives, this historical gem allows us to marvel at the intricate details that bring this vivid scene to life.
