EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness the life of a water carrier and itinerant merchant in Roustchouk, Romania. The image showcases the merchant proudly posing with his equipment, which includes a unique tank box and a container used as both a measure and cup. Engraved after the drawing of Emile Bayard, this illustration originally appeared in Guillaume Lejean's account of his journey to Bulgaria in 1867. Published years later in "Le tour du monde" by Edouard Charton, this piece offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Eastern Europe during that era. The water carrier's traditional attire adds an element of authenticity to the scene. His portrait exudes strength and resilience as he carries out his daily trade. This engraving captures not only the physical aspects but also highlights the significance of commerce within Romanian society at that time. As we admire this historical artwork from Leonard de Selva's private collection, we can't help but appreciate its ability to transport us through time. It serves as a reminder of how much our world has evolved while honoring those who played vital roles in shaping our societies centuries ago.
