EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Art of Writing," is a masterpiece by Benoit-Louis Prevost from the Encyclopédie, published in 1760. The image showcases a young man intently focused on his writing task, surrounded by various tools of the trade. The artist meticulously captures the essence of the writing process during the 18th century. The scene is set in a rustic, yet elegant environment, with a countryside backdrop and a simple wooden table. The young man, dressed in the fashion of the time, holds a quill pen in his hand, dipped in ink from an inkwell. An inkpot sits nearby, along with a variety of quills and a diagram of the anatomy of a pen. The correspondence tools suggest the importance of written communication during this era. The intricate engraving with etching on cream laid paper is a testament to the artist's skill and attention to detail. Prevost's ability to capture the essence of the writing process in a single image is a remarkable achievement. This print invites us to reflect on the importance of the written word and the dedication required to produce it. The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to house this significant work in its extensive collection. The image is a valuable addition to any art centre, art gallery, or institute, as it provides a glimpse into the past and the evolution of the art of writing. This print is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, design, or the written word.
