EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases the fascinating process of olive oil production. The image, part of a private collection, depicts a scene of agricultural activity in France during this era. With vibrant colours and intricate details, it offers a glimpse into the world of farming and manufacturing in that time period. The workers in the engraving are shown diligently pressing and crushing olives to extract their precious oil. This labor-intensive task highlights the employment opportunities available within this industry during the late 19th century. The factory setting indicates that olive oil production was not only a traditional practice but also an industrialized one. Beyond its historical significance, this artwork provides insight into various aspects of French culture at that time. It hints at France's rich viticulture heritage by featuring wine harvest scenes alongside olive oil production. Additionally, references to botany and natural history emphasize the scientific methods employed in agriculture during this period.
