EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 17th century, capturing a lively scene at The Guilbray Fair and the Cattle Market. The engraving, created by an anonymous French artist, showcases the bustling atmosphere of this trade event. In the foreground, we see tradespeople engaging in commerce - blacksmiths working diligently on their ironmongery, while others negotiate deals for cattle using halters. Horses are also present, adding to the vibrant energy of the market. Beyond the marketplace lies a stage where entertainment unfolds. A crowd gathers around as male and female travelling players captivate them with their theatrical skills. Perhaps they engage in a thrilling swordfight or perform dramatic scenes that keep the audience enthralled. The backdrop is adorned with haystacks and tents, creating a rustic ambiance that transports us to another era. This image beautifully captures both aspects of daily life during this period - trade and entertainment coming together harmoniously. Preserved at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this historical artwork offers us a glimpse into centuries past. It serves as a reminder of how communities would gather at fairs like these not only for economic purposes but also for cultural enrichment through theater performances and social interactions.
