EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of two dedicated glove makers, working tirelessly in their humble cottage in the picturesque village of Ashton Keynes during the 1930s Depression in England. The image transports us back in time to an era when the glove making industry was a significant part of the local economy, and the villagers' livelihoods depended on their skill and dedication. The photograph shows the two artisans, dressed in traditional costume, seated at their workbenches, surrounded by an array of gloves in various stages of production. The scene is set against the backdrop of a simple, rustic cottage, with its wooden beams and thatched roof. The glove makers' faces are etched with the lines of hard work and concentration, as they focus intently on their craft. Despite the long hours they put in, working 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, their earnings were meager, with each only taking home 28 shillings a week. The harsh economic realities of the Depression are evident in their worn clothing and the sparse surroundings of their workshop. This historical photograph is a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination of the people of Ashton Keynes during a challenging time in English history. The image captures the essence of the Cotswold village, with its charming cottages and rich heritage, and the importance of the glove making industry to the local community.
