EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fireman in the midst of an intriguing experiment with an asbestos fire blanket. The image, a vibrant colour lithograph from the 20th century, showcases the bravery and dedication of these unsung heroes. Taken from "The Picture Book of Firemen" published by Ward, Lock & Co. , Limited in London and Melbourne around 1935, this illustration offers a glimpse into the early twentieth-century firefighting techniques. The fireman is depicted wearing his helmet and uniform as he conducts his scientific investigation. With flames flickering in the background, this brave firefighter fearlessly tests the effectiveness of the asbestos fire blanket. Asbestos was commonly used during that era due to its resistance to heat and flame; however, we now know about its harmful health effects. The image not only highlights the courage of firefighters but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of safety standards and knowledge regarding hazardous materials. Through this lithograph's vivid colours and detailed illustrations, viewers are transported back to a time when these courageous individuals risked their lives daily to protect others. It stands as both a tribute to their selflessness and an important historical document showcasing firefighting practices from decades ago. This remarkable piece is part of Bridgeman Images' private collection available through Fine Art Finder for those seeking unique glimpses into our past.
