EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate art of goldbeating during the medieval ages. Created by a French School in the 19th century, this engraving is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the trade, customs, and manners of that era. The image depicts a goldbeater diligently working on his craft, surrounded by various tools and materials essential for manufacturing gold. The artist beautifully captures the essence of early industry and craftsmanship as he meticulously beats sheets of gold to create delicate pieces for adornment. Originally designed and engraved by J Amman in the sixteenth century, this facsimile has been digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity while preserving its historical significance. It was featured in Paul Lacroix's renowned book "Manners, Customs, and Dress during the Middle Ages" published around 1890. Through this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an important aspect of Renaissance culture – the age-old tradition of transforming raw metals into precious treasures. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and creativity throughout history. Bridgeman Images proudly presents this remarkable piece from their Fine Art Finder collection.
