EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historical moment from the 17th century in Germany, showcasing the role of a tax collector. The engraving, created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, depicts the scene of a tax collector receiving payment from citizens. The image portrays the meticulous nature of taxation during that era, highlighting the importance placed on collecting funds for governmental purposes. It offers a glimpse into German culture and history, shedding light on how financial transactions were conducted in Northern Germany at that time. The composition is visually striking with its intricate details and realistic portrayal of individuals engaged in this transaction. The subjects' expressions convey various emotions - some appear resigned while others seem apprehensive or even defiant. This artwork was originally featured as an illustration in "Kulturgeschichtliches Bilderbuch aus drei Jahrhunderten" (Cultural History Picture Book from Three Centuries) by Georg Hirth, published between 1881-1890. This digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate the fine craftsmanship and artistic skill employed by both the original engraver and now Bridgeman Images who have made it available to us. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder of our shared European history and how taxation has played an integral role in shaping societies throughout time.
