EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Scissors" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing a vital tool of the tailoring trade. The French School artist beautifully captures the essence of this occupation, highlighting the meticulous work involved in cutting fabric. The image transports us to a bustling tailor's workshop, where skilled workers meticulously cut and shape various materials with their trusty scissors. Each pair tells a story of dedication and craftsmanship as they effortlessly glide through cloth, creating garments that will adorn countless individuals. Intriguingly, this educational card also features an unexpected twist - an advertisement for Chocolat Guerin Boutron. Perhaps it was common practice during that era to include such promotional content on educational materials. This unique combination adds charm and whimsy to the print, evoking memories of sweet treats enjoyed during breaks from laborious tasks. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of the importance of tradesmen but also how seemingly unrelated elements can intertwine within historical artifacts. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness in finding creative ways to promote products while educating future generations. Bridgeman Images has once again brought forth a remarkable piece from their collection that invites us into another time period filled with skillful hands at work and delectable indulgences waiting just around the corner.
