EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, inside a glassware in Lodelinsart (or Lodlinsat), a town nestled within Charleroi, Belgium. The image is an engraving by Constant Meunier, created to illustrate the story "Belgium" written by renowned Belgian author Camille Lemonnier. The scene depicted showcases the intricate craftsmanship of a glass blower at work. With intense focus and precision, the laborer skillfully manipulates molten glass with his tools, creating delicate and exquisite pieces of art. The atmosphere is filled with heat and intensity as flames dance around him. Meunier's attention to detail brings this moment in time alive; every line etched into the engraving captures not only the physicality of the craftsman but also his dedication and passion for his trade. It serves as a testament to the industrious spirit that defined Belgium during this era. Published in Le Tour du monde, nouveau journal des voyages in 1884, edited by Edouard Charton, this engraving offers viewers a glimpse into an important aspect of Belgian industry at that time. It stands as a tribute to both Meunier's artistic talent and Lemonnier's ability to capture the essence of their homeland through words. Leonard de Selva has beautifully preserved this historical piece through photography. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty found within artisanal craftsmanship but also provides insight into Belgium's rich cultural heritage.
