EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historical household task from 1878 - the process of stripping poisonous wallpaper. In this image, we see a person diligently working to remove layers of toxic wallpaper from the walls of their home. The intricate patterns and designs on the wallpaper hint at a time when such decor was popular, despite its harmful effects.
The act of stripping wallpaper was not only a tedious DIY task but also potentially dangerous due to the poisonous materials used in some wallpapers during that era. This photograph serves as a reminder of the risks people were willing to take in order to beautify their homes.
As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of the many chores that homeowners had to tackle in order to maintain their living spaces. The attention to detail and dedication shown by the individual in this image is truly commendable.
Through this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we gain insight into a lesser-known aspect of historical household maintenance. It serves as both an educational tool and a visual representation of the challenges faced by individuals in years past.
