EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating glimpse into the mid to late 17th century with "Brandy or Cure Seller" by Abraham Bosse. The image showcases a male figure, an itinerant seller, standing proudly in his country attire. With his weathered face and determined expression, he exudes the essence of a quack doctor from that era. The etching depicts this mysterious man surrounded by various potions and remedies, hinting at his trade as a seller of questionable cures. His presence evokes curiosity about the efficacy of these concoctions and the desperation of people seeking relief during those times. Abraham Bosse's attention to detail is evident in every line etched on this piece, capturing not only the man but also providing insight into French heritage art. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition while emphasizing the character's enigmatic nature. Displayed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on history's quirks and peculiarities. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people were willing to travel great distances for their livelihoods or simply to sell their wares. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time when quackery was prevalent yet intriguing. It sparks our imagination about life during that period—a testament to both Bosse's artistic talent and our fascination with history's mysteries.
