EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the old tanneries of Ulm, Germany. The intricate drawing by Lancelot beautifully captures the essence of these historical establishments, showcasing the craftsmanship and industry that once thrived within their walls. The image was created as an illustration for Victor Duruy's journey from Paris to Bucharest in 1860. It was featured in "Le tour du monde" a renowned publication edited by Edouard Charton in 1862. This engraving is part of the Selvas collection, carefully preserved throughout the years. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are transported to a different era. We can almost smell the distinct scent of leather being processed and hear the rhythmic sounds of machinery at work. The attention to detail is astonishing, allowing us to appreciate every aspect of these old tanneries. Lancelot's skillful depiction not only showcases his talent as an artist but also serves as a testament to the importance of tanning in German history. These factories were once bustling hubs where hides were transformed into high-quality leather goods that would be used around the world. This print by Leonard de Selva offers us a glimpse into a bygone era, reminding us of how far our industrial processes have come while honoring the legacy left behind by those who worked tirelessly within these walls.
