EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic Journeyman Certificate from 1838, created by the French School in the 19th century. Housed at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this certificate represents an important milestone for skilled tradesmen of that era. The image depicts a young apprentice surrounded by symbolic elements of his craft. Standing proudly with his top hat and walking stick, he is accompanied by figures representing Duty and St. Catherine, emphasizing the values of responsibility and skillful craftsmanship. The presence of a dog suggests loyalty and companionship within this secret society known as "compagnonnage". A river flows beneath a bridge in the background, symbolizing progress and journeying towards new horizons. The triangle motif signifies unity among artisans while also alluding to their training process. Intriguingly, a horn of plenty or cornucopia appears prominently in this scene, symbolizing abundance and prosperity resulting from mastering one's trade. This print offers us a glimpse into the world of apprenticeships during that time period when craftsmen would embark on tours across different towns to gain practical experience before becoming fully-fledged workers. With its intricate engravings and attention to detail, this artwork not only celebrates the rich history of French skilled trade organizations but also serves as a reminder of the importance placed on learning and camaraderie within these ancient brotherhoods.
