EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "Franco-Prussian War: On the market of St. Germain" offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by the people of France during this tumultuous period in history. The scene unfolds at a bustling marketplace, where an unusual sight catches the eye - a dogs and cats butcher. In this unique establishment, fresh rats are being sold for just 1 Frank each. The image serves as a stark reminder of the desperate measures taken by individuals to survive amidst war and scarcity. As France grappled with the devastating consequences of the Franco-Prussian War in 1871, it is evident that even unconventional food sources became fair game. The illustrative technique employed in this engraved image transports us back to Victorian times, capturing both historical accuracy and artistic finesse. Its retro-styled aesthetic adds an additional layer of intrigue to this historic artwork from Arkheia's collection. Beyond its visual appeal, this engraving provides valuable insight into the socio-economic conditions prevalent during that era. It stands as a testament to human resilience and adaptability when faced with adversity. As we contemplate this vintage print, let us remember those who endured unimaginable hardships during wartime and appreciate how far society has progressed since then. May it serve as a poignant reminder of our shared humanity across time and cultures.
