1812 Chairs Cries Mend Reeds Repairs Shoulder Trades

EDITORS COMMENTS
CHAIRS TO MEND captures a poignant moment in history, as a young girl with a basket of reeds slung over one shoulder cries out for chairs to be repaired. The image, dating back to 1812, provides a glimpse into the world of street trades and the importance of skilled craftsmen in maintaining household items. The girl's expression conveys both determination and desperation as she navigates the bustling streets, offering her services to mend broken chairs. Her role as a tradeswoman highlights the often overlooked contributions of women in historical trades and crafts. The chair she carries serves as a symbol of her trade, showcasing her expertise in repairing furniture. The basket of reeds hints at the traditional methods used in chair making and repair during this time period. This print from Mary Evans Picture Library not only documents a specific moment in history but also celebrates the resilience and resourcefulness of individuals who made their living through skilled craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and honoring those who have contributed to it through their labor.
