EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of a medieval town, where we catch a glimpse of a skilled businesswoman engaged in her trade. The image depicts "A Dealer In Eggs" beautifully reproduced from a 19th-century copy of a 16th-century woodcut by Cesare Vecellio. Dressed in traditional attire befitting the era, the woman stands proudly with her basket full of eggs, symbolizing both sustenance and commerce. Her meticulous dress reflects the importance she places on her occupation as she navigates through history's marketplace. The intricate details captured in this print transport us to an age when craftsmanship was highly valued. We can almost hear the clinking sound of coins exchanging hands as customers flock to purchase these essential goods. This snapshot into the past reminds us that even centuries ago, women played vital roles in society and contributed significantly to their communities' economic growth. Ken Welsh's expertise shines through his masterful reproduction, allowing us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also the artistic beauty inherent in this piece. As we gaze upon this vertical composition, we are transported back through time, marveling at how our ancestors thrived amidst different challenges and opportunities. This stunning print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience throughout history—a reminder that every profession has its place within society's tapestry—and invites us to reflect on our own contributions today.
