EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Man and woman of Strasbourg, Alsace, France, 1818" takes us back in time to the picturesque region of Alsace in France during the early 19th century. The image showcases a man and a woman dressed in traditional costumes, representing the local culture and heritage. The woman proudly displays her wares on a table set amidst a charming garden backdrop. With vibrant colors meticulously handcolored onto the copperplate engraving, every detail comes to life. This artwork is part of Mary Anne Venning's educational book "A Geographical Present" which aimed to provide descriptions of various countries around the world. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are transported into an era where commerce thrived and people took pride in their national identity. The intricate costumes worn by both individuals reflect their affiliation with the Strasbourg community. Mary Anne Venning's work as a female author and tutor during this period was groundbreaking. Her contributions to education through books on geography, conchology (the study of shells), and mineralogy were highly regarded. This print not only captures the essence of French history but also serves as a testament to Venning's dedication towards enlightening minds through her writings. It allows us to appreciate the beauty of diversity within our world while celebrating cultural heritage that continues to shape our present-day society.
