EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithography print from the 19th century takes us back to the bustling streets of Paris in 1750, showcasing a metier that has long disappeared - an ecaillere, or oyster saleswoman. The image depicts a young woman wearing a typical cap, skillfully shucking oysters with precision and expertise. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this artwork bring to life the atmosphere of 18th-century France. The artist captures not only the essence of the metier but also provides insight into the daily life and street trades prevalent during that era. The oyster, symbolizing luxury and indulgence, takes center stage in this composition. Its delicate shell is meticulously depicted alongside other elements such as crustaceans and shells strewn across the table where our protagonist works. This scene transports us to a time when fresh seafood was highly sought after by Parisians. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into history - witnessing how women played an active role in commerce even centuries ago. The determination on her face reflects her dedication to her craft despite societal norms at that time. As we admire this piece from a private collection today, it serves as both an artistic treasure and historical documentation. It reminds us of forgotten professions while celebrating the resilience and strength of those who pursued them.
