La Lunetière
This image, presumably from an encyclopedia or a book on optics, shows a female optician at work, here grinding a lens. On the table in front of her are a number of tools of the trade, while many of the products sold, including various telescopes, are arranged in the background. This print is a line engraving with etched details.
