EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Cutting Spokes (engraving)", takes us back to the 19th century in a bustling carriage factory in Boulogne-sur-Mer, Paris. The English School artist skillfully captures the intricate process of crafting spokes for carriages at Belvallette's workshop. The image showcases a group of skilled craftsmen meticulously cutting and shaping wooden spokes with precision and expertise. Each artisan is fully engrossed in their task, showcasing their dedication to their craft. The atmosphere is filled with an air of concentration as they work diligently amidst the backdrop of tools and materials scattered around them. This engraving was originally featured in The Practical Magazine, Volume II in 1873, providing readers with a glimpse into the world of carriage-making during that era. It serves as a testament to the importance of this trade and highlights the meticulous craftsmanship required to create such essential components. As we admire this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the laborious process involved in creating these vital elements for horse-drawn carriages. This print not only offers us a visual feast but also invites us to appreciate the rich history behind this forgotten art form.
