EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print by Jost Amman, titled "COPPERSMITH, 1568" takes us back to the heart of Renaissance Germany. Created in 1568, this masterpiece showcases the skill and craftsmanship of a German coppersmith at work in his workshop. The scene depicts a mid-16th century interior where men are engaged in various tasks related to copper manufacturing. The coppersmith is seen hammering away at a piece of copper with great precision and expertise. His hat adds an authentic touch to his attire as he focuses on creating exquisite metalwork. Surrounding him are different tools and objects associated with his trade - basins, kettles, pots, pitchers - all waiting to be shaped into functional works of art. The attention to detail is evident not only in the depiction of these items but also in the intricate calligraphy that adorns them. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the workshop, one can feel the dedication and passion that went into perfecting this ancient craft. This woodcut serves as a testament to both Jost Amman's artistic talent and the importance placed on skilled labor during this period. As we admire this historic print today, it reminds us of how far we have come while honoring those who paved the way for modern craftsmanship.
