EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Woman Crushing Flax" transports us back to the 19th century in rural France. Created by Jacques-Adrien Lavieille in 1853, this artwork is a reproduction of his earlier drawing from 1852. Lavieille pays homage to Jean-François Millet, a renowned French artist known for his depictions of agricultural life. In this image, we see a female farm worker engrossed in her laborious task of crushing flax. The back view allows us to observe her physical exertion and dedication to her job. Her silhouette against the backdrop of the European countryside evokes a sense of hard work and resilience. The wood engraving technique used by Lavieille adds depth and texture to the scene. Executed on gray china paper laid down on off-white wove paper chine collé, it showcases the artist's mastery in capturing intricate details through delicate lines. This print serves as a testament to the importance of manual labor during that era when agriculture was at the heart of society. It invites us to reflect upon our connection with nature and appreciate those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes. Displayed at an art institute or gallery such as The Art Institute Chicago, this piece stands as a symbol of heritage art that transcends time. Its presence reminds us not only of historical occupations but also highlights the enduring beauty found within everyday tasks performed by women like this flax-crushing farmhand.
