EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration, titled "M for Marmite, 1920" takes us back to the enchanting world of early 20th-century Brittany. Created by the talented artist Catherine Josephine Marie Fricero, this piece is part of her collection in "Alphabet des Petits Bretons" published by Hachette in Paris. Measuring at 31x24 cm, this print showcases a young girl dressed in traditional Breton attire. With an air of curiosity and innocence, she stands proudly next to a large marmite or cauldron - a symbol deeply rooted in French cuisine and culture. The marmite represents not only warmth and nourishment but also the craftsmanship of chaudronnerie (metalwork). The illustration beautifully captures the essence of education and learning as it features the letter 'M' from the alphabet. It serves as a visual aid for children's literacy development during that era. Transporting us to a simpler time, this image evokes feelings of nostalgia while celebrating both regional traditions and universal themes such as childhood exploration. Its timeless appeal lies not only in its artistic execution but also in its ability to spark our imagination. With careful attention to detail, Fricero's work reminds us that art has always played an essential role in capturing cultural heritage and preserving cherished memories. This particular print offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century France through the eyes of an imaginative child adorned with traditional garments. Photo © Duvallon | Bridgeman Images
