Engravings depict miners toiling underground, their perseverance fueling industrial progress. Amidst lush fields in Mont Vernon stands George Washington himself - not as a statesman but as a farmer tending to his land. The juxtaposition reveals his multifaceted character beyond politics. Indulge your sweet tooth at The Ma ert Confectionery in Lille, France. Here you can savor delicacies crafted with passion by skilled artisans who have mastered their metier over generations. Travel back even further to Paris in 1750 when oyster saleswomen known as ecailleres donned distinctive caps while shucking these delectable treasures from the sea. A chromolithography captures this lost profession forever. Witness another facet of society through Paul Gavarni's lithograph depicting an illiterate young woman seeking help from a public letter writer to communicate her love for someone else. It speaks volumes about societal norms and human emotions. The bustling streets of Paris come alive with Charles Pezeu dit Carlopez's drawings showcasing small trades like shoe shining or removing stains – humble yet essential services that kept the city running smoothly. Maurice Radiguet's illustration for "L'Assiette au Butter" magazine transports us to an era where press and police intertwined closely - shedding light on power dynamics within society during early 20th century France.
