This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Paris in 1845. The image showcases a newspaper seller, known as a crier, diligently fulfilling his role amidst the vibrant city life. With newspapers stacked high on his cart, he skillfully navigates through the crowded streets, attracting attention with his loud cries. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment, showcasing the intricate details of both the seller and his surroundings. The worn expression on his face tells tales of long hours spent traversing the city in pursuit of selling news to eager customers.
