EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "History of Steam" takes us back to the mid-19th century, where we witness a pivotal moment in the evolution of steam power. Created by Bertmont, an artist from the 1860s, this illustration was intended for an educational textbook on the subject. The image portrays Denis Papin, a French inventor and scientist known for his contributions to steam technology. In 1707, Papin's paddle steamer is being destroyed by boatmen in Muenden as an act of sabotage. This incident highlights the resistance faced by early pioneers like Papin who were pushing boundaries with their inventions. The artwork showcases various elements related to steam power: a locomotive, a pressure cooker (known as marmite), and a cafetiere (a type of coffee pot). These objects symbolize different aspects of steam innovation and its impact on society. Through this visual narrative, we are transported into the world of 18th-century engineering and invention. It reminds us that progress often encounters opposition but ultimately prevails against all odds. Preserved in Paris' Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs archives, this historical gem offers valuable insights into the development of steam technology. Its vibrant colors and intricate details make it not just an educational tool but also a work of art worth admiring for its historical significance.
