EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases the essential ingredient for beer making - hops. The intricate illustration, part of a private collection, is believed to have been featured in "Bebe Devient Savant" by Madame Doudet (Theodore Lefevre) published in Paris around 1875. The image transports us back to a time when agriculture played a vital role in society. It depicts an agricultural scene with lush hop plants growing vigorously, their vibrant green leaves adding a splash of color to the composition. The botanical accuracy and scientific methods employed in this engraving highlight its significance as a historical document. Originating from France, known for its rich brewing traditions, this print offers insight into the artistry and craftsmanship involved in producing beer during that era. Hops were not only cultivated for their bitter flavor but also for their preservative properties, ensuring that beer could be enjoyed over extended periods. As we admire this piece of history, it's fascinating to consider how much has changed since then. From indoor plant cultivation techniques to advancements in brewing technology, the world of beer-making has evolved significantly. However, one thing remains constant - our appreciation for this beloved beverage that brings people together across cultures and continents. This enchanting engraving serves as a reminder of both the past and present connection between agriculture and alcohol production while showcasing the beauty found within nature's bounty.
