EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an oil mill in action, powered by a pair of strong oxen. Engraved by Poisson, this image is a remarkable depiction of the industriousness and hard work that characterized rural life in India during the 18th century. The scene captures the essence of agricultural labor as two oxen tirelessly turn the large wooden wheel, powering the machinery that extracts precious oil from seeds or nuts. The workers can be seen guiding the animals with care and precision, ensuring a smooth operation. The whip held by one male worker serves as a reminder of how these magnificent creatures were trained to respond to commands. Set against a backdrop of lush countryside, this engraving transports us back in time to witness firsthand the vital role played by agriculture in Indian society. It evokes feelings of admiration for both man and beast as they toil together under the open sky. This exquisite piece from Voyages aux Indes et à la Chine offers us not only a glimpse into historical farming practices but also invites contemplation on our relationship with nature and our reliance on its resources. A true testament to human ingenuity and cooperation with animals, this print is sure to captivate anyone who appreciates artistry combined with cultural significance.
