One thought on “Tinsmith from Encyclopedia Diderot and D’alembert 1763

  1. Greetings,

    It looks like there are some tankards? on the top center shelf behind the workers…maybe not. If so…it looks like one has a lid that is standing up? (Like a flagon?) Or is it a spoon sitting in it?

    Great image!
