EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Vitrier" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century in France. The image showcases a bustling street scene, where a hardworking glazier is diligently mending windows. With his tools in hand and focused expression, he epitomizes the dedication of workers from that era. The photograph not only captures the essence of this particular occupation but also provides a glimpse into French society at the time. The presence of other vendors and characters on the street hints at a vibrant community where different trades coexisted harmoniously. Amidst this lively setting, one cannot help but notice an intriguing detail - Chocolat Louit, a sweet shop prominently displayed in the background. This unexpected juxtaposition adds an element of surprise to the composition, as it highlights both everyday life and indulgence within French culture. Through this single snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era when occupations defined social classes and individuals took pride in their work. It serves as a reminder of how much our world has evolved since then while honoring those who contributed to shaping our societies through their labor. This evocative print by Louis Borgex offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also historical insight into French craftsmanship and daily life during that period.
