The Hand Jigger - A Glimpse into the Craftsmanship of 20th Century England
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph, titled "The Hand Jigger" offers a fascinating insight into the craft industry of early 20th century England. The image showcases a skilled craftsman at work in his workshop, surrounded by tools and materials essential to boot and shoe making. With meticulous attention to detail, the artist captures the essence of modernity within this traditional trade. The illustration was originally created as an accompaniment for "The Modern Boot and Shoe Maker" publication in 1917, published by Gresham. In this snapshot from history, we witness the dedication and expertise required to create footwear during that era. The shoemaker's hands move with precision as he operates a hand jigger—a tool used for shaping leather soles—highlighting the importance of manual craftsmanship in an increasingly industrialized world. As we delve deeper into this scene, it becomes evident that this print represents more than just one individual's occupation; it symbolizes an entire industry built on centuries-old traditions. It serves as a reminder of guilds and workshops where generations of craftsmen honed their skills through handiwork. "The Hand Jigger" is not merely a beautiful piece of art but also a testament to British heritage and European craftsmanship. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the skillful artistry behind every pair of boots or shoes made during that period. Captured forever within this image is a moment frozen in time—an homage to those who dedicated their lives to perfecting their craft while embracing technological advancements that shaped our modern world.
