EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of determined women lumberjacks at work during the First World War. The year was 1917, and as men were being sent to the battlefields of Europe, the need for labor in various industries back home became increasingly pressing. The lumber industry was no exception. In response, women from all walks of life stepped up to take on roles traditionally held by men. The women in this image are dressed in white overalls, their faces focused and serious as they saw through the trunks of trees. The trees, with their thick trunks and dense foliage, tower over them, a testament to the physical demands of their work. The women work in unison, each one using her strength and skill to bring down the trees. The sawdust on the ground and the sawdust in the air are reminders of the manual labor involved in the process. The outdoor setting, with the sun filtering through the trees and casting dappled light on the scene, adds to the sense of industry and productivity. The women's tireless efforts were crucial to the war effort, as timber was needed for various military applications, including the construction of ships, barracks, and fortifications. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the resilience and adaptability of women during wartime. It also highlights the important role that women played in keeping industries running while men were away at war. The image is part of The John Barrett Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library and offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the strength and determination of these women lumberjacks during the First World War.
