EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Picking fruit from tree outside cottage, ca. 1852" captures the essence of rural life in 19th century France. Created by Charles Emile Jacque, a renowned French artist, this wood engraving showcases the beauty of agricultural work and the simplicity of countryside living. In this scene, we see a female fruit picker diligently gathering apples from a bountiful tree just outside a charming cottage. With her ladder propped against the sturdy trunk, she skillfully plucks ripe fruits while surrounded by nature's lush greenery. The orchard behind her adds to the idyllic setting, evoking images of peaceful summer days spent harvesting. Jacque's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork - from the intricate depiction of each apple on the branches to the rustic charm exuded by both woman and surroundings. This piece beautifully encapsulates not only an occupation but also a way of life that was deeply rooted in agriculture and connected with nature. As part of The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this print serves as a testament to regionalism and heritage art. It transports us back in time to witness firsthand an important profession that sustained communities during that era. Whether displayed at home or in museums worldwide, this timeless image continues to captivate viewers with its nostalgic appeal and celebration of rural traditions.
