EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lace (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century in England, showcasing the intricate art of lace making. The image is part of a private collection and was featured in Charles Tomlinson's book, "Illustrations of Useful Arts and Manufactures" published around 1860. The photograph offers a magnified view into the major stages and processes involved in lace production during the Industrial Revolution. It highlights various equipment used by workers, such as bobbin net machines and pillow lace-making tools. The detailed illustrations reveal both plain weaving and twilled weaving techniques employed to create different types of lace. This historical artifact sheds light on an industry that played a significant role in Britain's manufacturing landscape at the time. Lace-making was not only a major source of employment but also contributed to British culture and identity. While this particular engraving focuses on English lace production, it reminds us that France was another prominent player in this field within Europe. The image invites us to appreciate the craftsmanship behind these delicate fabrics while acknowledging their impact across borders. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this piece from Fine Art Finder, allowing viewers to delve into history through visual storytelling. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and creativity during an era marked by industrial advancements.
