EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "FRANCE: ROOFING, 1848" captures a remarkable scene from the past. In the foreground, we see a surveyor and architect engrossed in their work, overseeing a group of skilled roofers diligently toiling away on a cathedral in the picturesque Loire region of France. The workers depicted here are none other than compagnons, members of secret trade-union organizations known for their exceptional craftsmanship. The watercolor medium used to create this artwork adds an ethereal quality to the scene, transporting us back to the year 1848 when this piece was painted. The attention to detail is evident as every stroke brings life and depth to each element within the composition. As our eyes wander through this image, we can't help but admire the intricate design and grandeur of the cathedral's exterior. Its towering spires reach towards the heavens while showcasing both French architectural finesse and timeless beauty. This print by Bradley Smith is part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, which aims to preserve historical moments through art. It serves as a testament not only to these hardworking craftsmen but also pays homage to France's rich cultural heritage.
