EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the United Asbestos Co's Harefield Mills in all its 19th-century glory near London. The intricate details of the building showcase the craftsmanship and architectural design of the time, while also shedding light on a darker aspect - asbestos manufacturing. Dating back to 1887, this print serves as a historical reminder of a period when asbestos was widely used in construction despite its toxic nature. The image not only showcases the grandeur of the mill but also hints at the dangers associated with working in such an environment. The stark contrast between the beauty of the architecture and the poisonous nature of asbestos is striking, serving as a poignant commentary on industrial practices of that era. It prompts viewers to reflect on how far we have come in terms of workplace safety and environmental awareness. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand both the progress and pitfalls of industrialization. It serves as a visual representation of history, reminding us to learn from our past mistakes and strive for safer, more sustainable practices in modern times.
