EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the bustling atmosphere of a traditional baker's kitchen, as depicted in the Encyclopedie des Sciences et Metiers by Denis Diderot. Created around 1770, this engraving offers a glimpse into the artistry and craftsmanship that went into baking during the 18th century. The image is filled with an array of essential tools and equipment used by bakers to create their delectable treats. Knives and cleavers are meticulously arranged, ready to be wielded with precision. A large bowl sits prominently on the counter, awaiting its turn to hold ingredients for dough or batter. The oven in the background emanates warmth, promising mouthwatering results. Intriguingly, amidst all these culinary implements lies a pestle and mortar – perhaps hinting at the versatility of bakers who also dabbled in creating flavorful spices or grinding herbs for their recipes. Adding further charm to this scene are elements of nature: a rabbit perched atop one of the counters suggests fresh game being prepared for pies or stews. This detail highlights not only the skillful techniques employed by bakers but also their ability to incorporate diverse ingredients into their creations. Overall, this enchanting print captures both the practicality and creativity inherent in baking. It serves as a testament to centuries-old traditions passed down through generations of skilled pastry makers and chefs who have mastered their craft within these very walls.
