ETAPE/STEP 12/3



The answer could be : the blogger in the hall with a shoehorn!
as I got a little off the topic, but before books could find their readers, the information circulated with images.
no the answer is.... the stitcher with the scissors in the library!

La réponse est....  la brodeuse avec les ciseaux dans la bibliothèque quoiqu'elle aurait pu être la blogueuse dans l'entrée avec le chausse-pied vu que je me suis un peu éloignée de mon sujet principal, mais avant que les livres ne se démocratisent et parviennent à tous les lecteurs, l'information a d'abord circulé sous forme d'images.

Epinal prints were prints on popular subjects rendered in bright sharp colours, sold in France in the 19th century. They own their name to the fact that the first publisher of such images, Jean-Charles Pellerin, having been born in Epinal, named the printing house he founded in 1796 "IMAGERIE D'EPINAL";

The expression "image d'Epinal" has become proverbial in French and refers to an emphatically traditionalist and naive depiction of something, showing only its good aspects.
