EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century engraving by Robert Benard showcases the skilled craftsmanship of tilers working on a building floor. The scene, set in 1778, depicts workers diligently laying floor tiles and paving stones using various tools such as trowels, levels, hammers, pins, basins, and more. The attention to detail is remarkable as every aspect of their work is captured with precision. The architecture depicted in this print reflects the expertise of carreleurs (tile layers) during this period. Copperplate engraving was employed by Benard to create this piece for Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d'Alembert's Encyclopedie (Encyclopedia), published in Geneva. The image transports us back to the early 18th century when craft industries thrived under guilds' guidance. It offers a glimpse into the world of craftsmen and craftswomen who dedicated themselves to producing exquisite handiwork. The large construction site depicted hints at the scale of projects undertaken during that era. This print serves not only as an artistic representation but also as a historical document providing insight into architectural practices prevalent in France at the time. Bridgeman Images has preserved this valuable artwork from Fine Art Finder's collection for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Its black-and-white composition adds a timeless quality to the image while emphasizing its intricate details. As we admire this engraving today, we are reminded of the rich heritage left behind by these talented artisans who contributed significantly to our built environment centuries ago.
