EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Encyclopedie, ou Dictionnaire Raisonne des Sciences, des Arts et des Metiers by Diderot & d'Alembert captures a fascinating scene of cheese-making in 18th century France. The image showcases a group of men diligently working together to produce the renowned Cheese of Auvergne. In this detailed illustration, we see an interior setting where the process takes place. A large vat stands at the center, filled with milk that is being carefully stirred by one of the men using a tool specifically designed for this purpose. Surrounding him are his fellow craftsmen, each engaged in their assigned tasks. The attention to detail is remarkable as every aspect of cheese production is depicted - from the funnel used to pour milk into molds to various equipment scattered around the room. The artist has skillfully captured not only the physical labor involved but also conveys a sense of camaraderie among these hardworking individuals. Denis Diderot's engraving transports us back in time, providing us with a glimpse into an important industry that shaped French culture and cuisine during this period. It serves as both an educational resource and a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only the artistry behind its creation but also gain insight into historical practices that continue to influence our modern-day appreciation for fine cheeses.
