EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century engraving by Robert Benard depicts quarrymen plasterers and their tools. The image showcases workers at a plaster stone quarry, equipped with an array of essential tools such as axes, shovels, hammers, picks, and more. The architectural significance of their craft is highlighted in the caption's mention of "Maconnerie" indicating their involvement in masonry work. The copperplate engraving was originally featured in Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d'Alembert's Encyclopedia published in Geneva in 1778. This historical artwork offers a glimpse into the craftsmanship prevalent during the era. The black-and-white composition adds to its timeless appeal while emphasizing the intricate details captured by Benard's skilled hand. The print evokes a sense of nostalgia for a time when manual labor played a crucial role in construction and architecture. Through this image, we are transported back to the 18th century - an era characterized by guilds and meticulous handiwork. It serves as a reminder of the artistry that went into creating structures that still stand today. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it invites us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the skill behind these craftsmen's work. Their dedication to their trade is evident through each stroke depicted on paper – an ode to both past traditions and enduring artistic excellence.
