EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Peddler of Old Hats, 1742" created by Anne-Claude-Philippe de Caylus in the 18th century, we are transported back to a bustling street scene in Paris. The image showcases a Parisian woman standing outside, dressed in traditional eighteenth-century attire. The peddler's occupation is evident as she proudly displays her wares - an assortment of old-fashioned hats neatly arranged on a table beside her. With one hand confidently placed on her hip, she exudes a sense of authority and expertise in her trade. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every fold and pleat of the woman's skirt can be seen, adding depth and texture to the composition. Her posture suggests both strength and grace, embodying the spirit of hard work that defined daily life during this era. This engraving captures not only the individual but also provides us with a glimpse into French society at that time. It serves as a testament to the importance of street trading as an essential part of urban culture. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork by Anne-Claude-Philippe de Caylus invites viewers to reflect on history while appreciating the beauty found within everyday scenes.
