EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Harvesting of rubber in the forests of Brazil" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the laborious process of extracting rubber from trees in the lush Brazilian forests. The image, captured by an anonymous French School artist, is part of a private collection now owned by Stefano Bianchetti. In this scene, we see a group of African workers diligently engaged in their task. Their presence highlights the significant role played by African laborers during this period in South America's history. With their expertise and strength, they contribute to Brazil's booming rubber industry. The dense forest serves as a backdrop for these hardworking individuals who skillfully tap into tree trunks to extract latex sap – the raw material for producing rubber. It is evident that this work requires physical endurance and precision as each worker carefully collects the precious liquid using traditional methods. This engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also sheds light on the interconnectedness between continents during this era. The exchange between Africa and South America through trade routes brought together diverse cultures and contributed to economic growth. As we admire Stefano Bianchetti's remarkable preservation of this historical artwork, let us reflect on how it represents both human ingenuity and nature's abundance while acknowledging its significance within our shared global history.
