"The Tisane Seller" is a notable engraving by François-Séraphin Delpech, based on the original work by French artist Carle Vernet (1758–1836). It is the thirteenth piece in the series known as "The Cries of Paris," which vividly depicts various street vendors of Paris during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The series serves as a historical record of the urban landscape and the daily life of Parisians, capturing the essence of the city's vibrant street culture.

Carle Vernet, born Antoine Charles Horace Vernet, was an accomplished painter and lithographer, renowned for his scenes of Napoleonic battles as well as his genre paintings that often portrayed the French bourgeoisie and working-class citizens. In "The Cries of Paris," Vernet turns his attention to the working poor, illustrating the diverse array of tradespeople who called out their wares and services to passersby.

"The Tisane Seller" specifically portrays an herbal tea vendor, a common sight in Paris at the time. Tisanes, or herbal teas, were popular for their medicinal properties and were sold by vendors who often concocted their own blends to address various ailments. The image is rich in detail, allowing viewers to glean insights into the attire, tools, and methods of the trade, as well as the interactions between the sellers and their clientele.

François-Séraphin Delpech was a French lithographer known for his portraits and his collaboration with prominent artists of his time. His engraving of Vernet's work is a testament to the collaborative nature of printmaking in the 19th century, where painters and engravers often worked together to disseminate art more widely to the public.

"The Tisane Seller" and the entire "The Cries of Paris" series not only offer a picturesque view of historical Parisian life but also reflect the social and economic dynamics of the period. These works are valuable to historians, art enthusiasts, and sociologists alike for their portrayal of the urban milieu and the everyday struggles and joys of its inhabitants.
