Trades Practiced in Bologna
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating etching by the 17th century Italian artists Francesco Curti and Agostino Parisini, showcasing the vibrant city life of Bologna during the Baroque era. This stunning work of art, specifically Plate 12, transports us back in time to the 1640s, where we witness a bustling street scene filled with various trades and professions. The etching begins with an impressive architectural facade, adorned with intricate details and ornate decorations, setting the stage for the lively scene unfolding before us. As we move further into the image, we encounter a diverse range of tradesmen and women at work. A man, likely a builder, is seen measuring and marking a wall with a ruler, while a woman sells brooms from a cart. A street vendor offers refreshments from a fountain, as men gather around to quench their thirst. In the foreground, a woman washes clothes in a tub, while a man repairs a shoe. A street trader displays his wares, including pots and pans, while a man pours water from a bucket into a barrel. The intricate details of the clothing, facial expressions, and tools used by the tradespeople add depth and authenticity to the scene. The black and white etching masterfully captures the essence of daily life in Bologna during the 17th century, providing a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of Italy. This work of art, now held in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to the skill and artistry of Francesco Curti and Agostino Parisini, and a reminder of the beauty and complexity of city life during this era.
