EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Blacksmiths at work, 1715" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of skilled craftsmen during the 18th century. The image showcases two male blacksmiths engrossed in their laborious task, surrounded by an array of tools and equipment. Notably, both men are donning heavy leather aprons as a protective measure against the scorching heat emanating from molten metal and burning charcoal. These aprons serve as a shield to safeguard their bodies from potential harm while working tirelessly at the forge. The print is derived from Magia Naturalis, a renowned publication authored by Johannes Baptista della Porta in Naples back in 1558. This particular edition was printed in Nuremberg in 1715. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to this engraving, emphasizing the dedication and concentration exhibited by these blacksmiths. Their strong physique suggests years of honing their craft through hammering metals on anvils with precision using tongs. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the importance of protective clothing within various occupations.
