EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant Festival of the grape harvest in Alsace, 1911. The illustration, originally featured in Le Petit Journal on 1st October 1911, showcases a momentous event that celebrates both tradition and community spirit. Set against a backdrop of picturesque rural life, men and women can be seen carrying baskets filled with ripe grapes as they participate in a colorful procession. The festival takes place during the autumn season when the vineyards are abundant with fruit. It is an occasion where locals come together to honor their agricultural heritage and rejoice in the bountiful harvest. The image portrays a snapshot of French culture from the early 20th century, capturing not only the hard work involved in harvesting grapes but also the joyous atmosphere created by this communal celebration. The engraving depicts both male and female villagers actively participating in this age-old tradition. Their rustic attire adds to the charm of this scene while emphasizing their connection to their land and its produce. This artwork serves as a testament to how deeply rooted agriculture was within French society during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to a time when festivals like these were cherished moments for communities across France. It reminds us of our shared history and highlights the importance of preserving cultural traditions for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.
