EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in the life of bricklayers in 1827, showcasing the dangerous and precarious nature of their work. The image features a brave bricklayer standing on a rather rickety-looking scaffold, with his assistant diligently mixing mortar behind him. Nearby, his hod for carrying bricks sits ready for use.
The scene is filled with historical significance, offering a glimpse into the challenging conditions faced by laborers in the early 19th century. The bricklayer's stoic stance and focused expression speak to the determination and skill required for such demanding work.
Despite the obvious risks involved in working at such heights, safety measures appear minimal at best. This serves as a stark reminder of how far workplace health and safety standards have come since that time.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured this moment in history, allowing viewers to appreciate both the craftsmanship of these skilled workers and the harsh realities they faced on a daily basis. This print serves as a testament to the resilience and dedication of those who helped build our cities and shape our world.
