EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Treading Of The Grape" takes us back to the 16th century, showcasing a reproduction of a miniature found in a prayer book calendar. This horizontal image beautifully captures the essence of agriculture and skill during medieval times. The scene depicts men engaged in the ancient occupation of treading grapes, an essential process for wine production. With their bare feet immersed in barrels filled with grapes, they expertly crush and squash them to extract the precious juice that will eventually become wine. The black and white medium adds a touch of historical charm to this illustration. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to an era where trade and commerce revolved around the production of food and drink. It serves as a reminder of how vital these industries were throughout history, shaping entire civilizations. Ken Welsh's attention to detail is evident in his intricate sketches and engravings that bring this period alive once again. Through his artistry, he pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to such noble callings as winemaking. This print not only celebrates an age-old profession but also invites us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in every step of grape extraction. It reminds us that even today, amidst modern technology, there is still value in preserving traditional methods rooted deep within our history.
