This print showcases an advertisement for the Yost typewriter, dating back to 1901. Created by Glover, a talented artist of the time, this illustration was featured in The Connoisseur magazine in November of that year. The image depicts an Edwardian office setting with a female typist diligently working at her desk. Surrounded by elegant furniture and immersed in history, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the occupation of a typist during the early 20th century. The Yost typewriter takes center stage in this advertisement, highlighting its importance as an essential tool for efficient writing and typing tasks. Its presence signifies progress and innovation within the industry. While the focus is on the woman engaged in her job, there are also male figures present in the background, emphasizing that both men and women were involved in this profession during that era. Glover's artistic style brings life to every detail captured within this monochrome masterpiece. The intricate lines and shading evoke a sense of nostalgia while preserving historical significance. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then while honoring those who paved the way for modern technology. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance throughout centuries past.
