EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Two Swiss Peasants Bargaining, 1785" takes us back to the rural landscapes of the 18th century. Created by Marquand Fidel Dominikus Wocher, a renowned artist of that era, this antique aquatint on paper beautifully captures the essence of agricultural life and regionalism during that time. In this artwork, we witness two figures engaged in a lively negotiation amidst a picturesque countryside setting. The vibrant colors and intricate detailing bring forth the rich culture and history associated with farming and livestock in Switzerland. The etched lines depict every nuance of their expressions, showcasing Wocher's exceptional talent as an artist. The image portrays both male and female peasants immersed in their occupation as farmworkers or laborers. Their attire reflects the fashion trends prevalent during that period while also emphasizing their connection to nature through depictions of cattle nearby. This scene serves as a testament to the importance of agriculture within Swiss society at that time. Displayed at an art institute in Chicago, this exhibition allows viewers to appreciate not only Wocher's skill but also offers insight into historical job roles and societal dynamics from centuries ago. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time - connecting with our heritage and gaining appreciation for those who worked tirelessly on these lands long before us.
