EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century copperplate engraving captures the timeless tradition of beekeeping, as beekeepers prepare to take a swarm. The scene is reminiscent of the agricultural practices outlined by Virgil in his Georgics, showcasing the deep-rooted connection between humans and bees that has been passed down through generations.
At the bottom of a tree, straw beehives (skeps) can be seen, providing shelter for the precious honey-making insects. The intricate details in this print highlight the delicate balance between man and nature in the art of apiculture.
As the beekeepers carefully tend to their hives, they embody centuries-old traditions set forth by Virgil himself. This image serves as a reminder of our reliance on these industrious pollinators for sustenance and sweetness.
Through this historical artwork, we are transported back to a time when agriculture was not just a means of survival, but a way of life deeply intertwined with nature. The beauty and complexity of beekeeping are captured in this engraving, serving as a testament to the enduring legacy of husbandry practices from Roman times.
