EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1871 showcases the versatility and significance of leather in various industries during the 19th century. The image, captured by an unknown creator, takes us back to a time when leather was essential for crafting purses, boots, gloves, saddles, luggage, and more. The lithograph beautifully depicts the different processes involved in treating leather and highlights the trades that relied on this material for clothing and manufacturing purposes. It offers a glimpse into Britain's cottage industry where skilled workers meticulously prepared leather using traditional tools and techniques. In this snapshot of history, we see both men and women engaged in their respective roles within this thriving occupation. From tanners working diligently at their tanneries to cobblers skillfully crafting shoes in workshops or even homes as part of homeworking arrangements - each individual played a vital role in meeting the demands of an industrializing society. This image serves as a metaphorical representation of not only the industriousness but also the mechanization brought about by the Industrial Revolution. Leather became emblematic of progress as it symbolized craftsmanship merging with new technologies. As we admire this remarkable piece preserved by The Print Collector collection, let us appreciate how these dedicated workers contributed to shaping our modern world through their expertise in harnessing one of nature's most durable materials – leather.
