EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Harvest time, 1762" takes us back to the picturesque French countryside of the eighteenth century. The scene depicts men and women diligently reaping with sickles, their tools glinting in the sunlight as they gather precious grains. In this idyllic setting, corn is tied up in sheaves and carefully stood in stooks to dry under the warm rays of the sun. The landscape is dotted with farm buildings, including a farmhouse where a milkmaid tends to her duties, symbolizing the vital role of agriculture in sustaining both people and animals. A contented cow grazes peacefully nearby, embodying the harmonious relationship between humans and nature during this era. This engraving from La Nouvelle Maison Rustique offers a glimpse into rural life during a time when farming methods were still rooted in tradition. It captures not only an occupation but also conveys a sense of rustic simplicity that defined this period. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece by an unknown creator, we are transported to another time – one filled with hard work yet imbued with a deep connection to the land. This print serves as a reminder of our agricultural heritage and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to feeding communities through their labor on farms across France.
