EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Cocoons in the house of the pappas of Trypi" takes us back to a bygone era, immersing us in the rich cultural tapestry of Greece during the mid-19th century. The drawing, skillfully executed by Ferdinandus (Alexandre Avenet), was featured in Le tour du monde magazine in 1878. The scene depicted showcases a traditional Greek household bustling with activity. In the center, an old man can be seen diligently working on his spinning instrument, surrounded by cocoons - symbols of silk manufacturing technology at that time. Nearby, a woman attends to her daily chores while cradling a baby girl in her arms. This snapshot into their lives offers glimpses into both their laborious work and cherished family moments. Henri Belle's story of his trips to Greece from 1861 to 1874 comes alive through this evocative illustration. It transports us back to an era where tradition and daily life seamlessly intertwined. The attention to detail captured by Ferdinandus allows us to appreciate not only the physical surroundings but also the essence of Greek civilization. Leonard de Selva's preservation and presentation of this artwork remind us of our connection with history and how it continues to shape our present-day understanding. As we gaze upon this print, we are invited on a journey through time - one that encourages reflection on cultural heritage and appreciation for human craftsmanship across generations.
