EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Gem Engraving," is an exquisite illustration from the Encyclopédie, a groundbreaking encyclopedia published in France between 1762 and 1777. The image, created by the skilled hand of A. J. Defehrt, also known as Andre Jean Baptiste Boucher d'Argis or Andre Le Breton, offers a fascinating glimpse into the art of gem engraving during the 18th century. Defehrt masterfully depicts an engraver at work, meticulously etching intricate designs onto a gemstone. The engraver is shown in profile, with his left hand holding a small hammer and his right hand guiding a sharp tool across the surface of the gem. The engraving itself is depicted on cream laid paper, adding a textured and organic quality to the image. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France and the European art tradition. It is also a reminder of the intricate and labor-intensive process of gem engraving, which involved great skill, patience, and precision. The image is a valuable historical record of a craft that has been practiced for centuries, and continues to captivate and inspire artists and collectors alike. The print is also a visual representation of the concept of art as a form of knowledge and a means of recording history. The Encyclopédie itself was a groundbreaking project that aimed to document all known knowledge, and the inclusion of an image of gem engraving reflects the importance of the arts in the broader cultural context of the time. Overall, this print is a stunning example of the beauty and intrigue of the art of gem engraving, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the Encyclopédie as a source of historical and artistic knowledge.
