Title
Le public devant les reconstitutions de MM. Perrot et Collignon.
Description
An exhibit retracing the history of work was held during the 1889 World Fair. The exhibit sought to retrace the progress and the evolution of tools, techniques, and of working conditions. There were four different sections: the exhibit started with an anthropological and ethnographic part, which included reconstitutions of prehistoric scenes, as well as reconstitutions of work scenes from other cultures (such as Chinese, Roman, or Egyptian). This print probably represents a section of the first part of the exhibit. The second section was dedicated to liberal arts, which included chemistry, book binding, printing presses, musical instruments, decors and costumes. The third part was entitled "Arts et Métiers" and dealt with engineering and agriculture. The fourth section was about transportation, and the fifth about the military. The first four sections were mounted in the Palais des arts libéraux, while the last one was located in the Palais du Ministère de la guerre.
