EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time from the 1960s, as a Breton onion seller prepares his wares for sale. The man, dressed in a simple cap and work clothes, is intently focused on constructing a straw base for his onions. With a deft touch, he weaves together long strands of straw, meticulously securing each onion in place. The onions, fresh and plump, are arranged in neat rows, their vibrant colors contrasting against the rustic backdrop of the straw. The scene exudes a sense of tradition and simplicity, transporting us back to a bygone era. The onion seller's expression is one of contentment and satisfaction, as he takes pride in his work and the bounty of the harvest. The table behind him is laden with more onions, ready to be strung and displayed for customers. The atmosphere is one of community and connection, as the seller anticipates the arrival of those who will purchase his produce. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of a Breton onion seller, and the importance of agriculture and trade in rural France during the mid-twentieth century. It is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures and hard work that go into bringing fresh, local produce to market.
