EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage print titled "Carrying Water" captured by the talented Bertall in 19th century Paris, we are transported back in time to witness a scene filled with elegance and simplicity. The engraving showcases a man and a young girl diligently carrying water from a tanker, their faces reflecting determination and resilience. Bertall's illustrative technique shines through as he effortlessly captures the essence of everyday life during this era. While his style may lack the finesse of Gavarni or the grotesque nature of Daumier, it is undeniable that Bertall exudes gaiety and originality in his work. The image takes us on a journey through history, allowing us to glimpse into the past when water was carried by hand rather than accessed at our fingertips. It serves as a reminder of how precious this resource was and still is today. As we admire this piece from Soyons, France, we can't help but appreciate its retro charm and artistic value. The composition beautifully highlights both the strength of character displayed by those depicted and Bertall's own strong originality as an illustrator. This remarkable print from Liszt Gourmet Archive truly encapsulates not only French culture but also pays homage to historic art forms that continue to inspire us today.
