The Vintage in the Canton of Vaud - A Glimpse into 19th Century Wine Making
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Vintage in the Canton of Vaud (litho)" takes us back to the enchanting world of wine making in the late 19th century. Captured by Paul Destez, this image offers a fascinating insight into the traditional methods and practices employed during that era. In this scene, we are transported to a picturesque vineyard in the beautiful Canton of Vaud. The gathering has commenced as workers stand amidst rows upon rows of vines, their baskets filled with ripe grapes ready for harvest. Wooden vessels and casks line the entrance, awaiting their precious cargo. As winter approaches, these gathered grapes will be carefully conveyed to nearby cellars where they will undergo fermentation. This crucial process clarifies and transforms grape juice into exquisite wine. Large casks and barrels can be seen holding previous vintages while new ones are being filled.

This remarkable print not only showcases viticulture but also highlights its significance within European culture and history. It serves as a testament to both scientific methods utilized at that time and our enduring fascination with botany and natural history. With its rich colors and intricate details, this vintage lithograph transports us back in time, allowing us
