EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing woodcut print, dated 1669, captures the dedicated craftsmanship of two German candlemakers in the midst of their work. The men, dressed in traditional 17th-century attire, are intently focused on their task, with one dipping a candlestick into a vat of molten wax and the other shaping a wick. The warm, flickering light of the candles they have already made illuminates their workspace, casting long shadows and adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. The candlemaking process was a labor-intensive and time-consuming one, requiring a great deal of skill and precision. The candlemakers would first melt the wax, often derived from beeswax or tallow, in large kettles over an open flame. They would then carefully dip the candlesticks into the wax, allowing them to cool and harden before trimming the excess wax and shaping the wicks. This image offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of artisans during the 17th century, showcasing the dedication and craftsmanship required to produce the candles that provided light and warmth to homes and churches. The intricate designs and patterns on the candlesticks, as well as the meticulous attention to detail, speak to the pride and care that went into each piece. Overall, this woodcut print is a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of 17th-century German candlemakers and the artisanal craftsmanship that went into creating the candles that lit the way for generations to come.
