Life in the village

Through his engravings, Edouard Vallet depicts village life, portraying not only the harsh, labour-intensive existence of Vercorin’s inhabitants but also their leisure activities, customs and rituals.

Skittles is a favourite pastime for the men on Sundays, whilst the women get together amongst themselves. From the bus shelter, peering over the hedge, you can see the skittles shed in the garden, as depicted in the engraving.
