EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in the history of Hong Kong's timber industry in 1905, showcasing a Chinese sawyer skillfully cutting a log with precision. The sawyer is depicted using his saw sideways, a technique employed to minimize the risk of splitting the timber. This unique method not only demonstrates the sawyer's expertise but also highlights the innovative approaches taken by workers in this industry during that time.
The image provides a glimpse into the daily life and practices of Chinese laborers working in Hong Kong over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of their hard work, dedication, and craftsmanship that contributed to shaping the city's industrial landscape.
Through this historical photograph, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how essential skills were passed down through generations within this thriving industry. The attention to detail captured by Mary Evans Picture Library allows us to appreciate the artistry and ingenuity involved in timber cutting during this era.
Overall, this print is not just an image frozen in time; it is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of those who played vital roles in Hong Kong's development as an industrial hub.
