The image depicts a scene from Paul Poire's book "La France Industrielle" published in 1873, which aimed to celebrate and document the country's booming industrial sector. In this particular illustration, we are transported into a bustling tile factory where skilled craftsmen meticulously create these beautiful works of art. The machinery hums with activity as each step of the manufacturing process is carefully executed. From shaping and glazing to engraving delicate patterns onto the tiles, every detail is attended to with precision and expertise.
