EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Needle and thread" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing a French educational card. The image portrays a working seamstress engrossed in her trade, diligently sewing with precision and skill. Her thimble-clad finger delicately guides the needle through fabric, highlighting the artistry involved in dressmaking. The setting of this scene is intriguing as well - a sweet shop named Chocolat Guerin Boutron serves as the backdrop for this industrious woman. It's an unexpected combination of two worlds: the world of confectionery delights and that of meticulous needlework. This juxtaposition reminds us that even amidst life's sweetness, there are those who work tirelessly to create beauty. The print captures not only the occupation but also tells a story about laborers and tradesmen during this era. It symbolizes their dedication to their craft and emphasizes how essential these workers were in providing food supplies for society. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historical artwork, allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic value and its cultural significance. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but admire the craftsmanship behind each stitch while contemplating the role of women in traditional trades like needlework.
