EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate process of paper manufacturing from bamboo in China. Taken from the book "La Chine en Miniatures" by M. Breton and published in Paris in 1811, this coloured engraving showcases the traditional craftsmanship that went into creating paper during that era. In this image, we see a group of laborious workers engaged in various stages of the papermaking process. From cutting and stripping bamboo to washing and soaking it, every step is meticulously executed by these skilled artisans. The workers are seen bundling faggots of bamboo together, preparing them for further processing. The scene exudes an aura of dedication and hard work as each worker diligently carries out their assigned task. Slicing and beating the softened bamboo fibers form another crucial part of this ancient technique. This engraving not only highlights the labor-intensive nature of paper production but also offers a glimpse into Chinese tradition and culture. It serves as a testament to the rich heritage associated with handcrafting techniques prevalent in Asia during that time. Preserved within eArchives Charmet at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this remarkable piece reminds us of the importance placed on preserving historical practices through art forms like engravings.
