EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a collection of objects that range from the practical to the fantastical. From the sturdy Mattock and comforting Mattress to the artistic Maul-stick and serene Meadow, each item tells its own unique story. The shining Medal and juicy Melon add a touch of luxury and indulgence, while the mystical Mermaid captures our imagination with her beauty and mystery. The precise Meter and informative Mile-post remind us of the importance of measurement and direction in our daily lives. The rustic Milk-can and hardworking Milkmaid symbolize simplicity and hard work, while the powerful Mill-dam represents industry and progress. This illustration is part of Kantner's Illustrated Book of Objects, a comprehensive guide filled with over 2000 engravings that provide both visual delight and educational value. It serves as a reminder of a bygone era when craftsmanship was revered, nature was celebrated, and imagination knew no bounds. As we gaze upon this intricate artwork, we are transported back in time to an age where every object had its own significance and beauty. It is a testament to human creativity, ingenuity, and curiosity – qualities that continue to inspire us today.
