This engraving titled "The World Went Very Well Then" by Walter Besant, beautifully captured by Amedee Forestier, takes us back to a simpler time. The scene depicts a domestic setting filled with warmth and contentment. In this enchanting print, we see a bag commanded by the hands of a skilled craftsman holding all the necessary tools for cooking. The fireplaces are lit, casting a gentle glow on the room as the cook tends to her handywork. Her eyes closed in concentration, she skillfully repeats her culinary gestures with precision and expertise. Surrounded by an atmosphere of comfort and harmony, this image transports us to an era where gastronomy was celebrated as an art form. It reminds us of the joy found in simple pleasures like baking bread or preparing delicious meals from scratch. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, it is impossible not to feel nostalgic for a time when life seemed less complicated. "The World Went Very Well Then" serves as a reminder that amidst our fast-paced modern lives, there is great value in slowing down and appreciating the craftsmanship involved in everyday tasks. This print captures not only the essence of Walter Besant's words but also celebrates the dedication and passion of craftsmen who have kept these traditions alive throughout generations.
