Gerber Und Farber / Tanners and Colourers (colour litho)
8666285 Gerber Und Farber / Tanners and Colourers (colour litho) by German School, (20th century); Private Collection; (add.info.: Gerber Und Farber. Die beiden alten Gewerbe des Gerbens und Farbens gehoren eng zusammen. Beim Gerben wurden rohe Tierhaute tagelang geweicht, gereinigt und in Gerberlohe zu Leder verarbeitet. Dann folgte das Farben in grossen Gefassen. Die Anilinfarben-Erfindung hat den Prozess vereinfacht, ohne die Schonheit der alten Naturfarben zu verdrangen (erste deutsche Teerfarbenfabrik 1863). Translation: Tanners and Colourers. The two ancient trades of tanning and dyeing go hand in hand. During tanning, raw animal hides were soaked for days, cleaned and then processed into leather in tanners. Then followed the colors in large containers. The invention of aniline dyes simplified the process without supplanting the beauty of the old natural colors (first German tar paint factory 1863).
