EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the traditional craft of a wig maker at work in the heart of London's ancient Temple district, in 1921. The Temple area, known for its historical connections to English law, is home to several legal institutions and chambers, making it an appropriate location for a wig maker to ply his trade. The man in the image, with his intense focus and deft hands, skillfully shapes and forms a legal wig, a crucial accessory for barristers and judges in the British legal system. Dressed in a simple white smock, he is surrounded by an array of wigs in various stages of completion, each one meticulously crafted to meet the specific requirements of its intended wearer. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a period of great change and modernization in many aspects of society. However, traditional trades like wig making continued to thrive, passing down their skills from generation to generation. The intricate process of making a legal wig involves several steps, including measuring the head, cutting, shaping, and curling the woolen fabric to create the distinctive style. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the rich history and tradition of this unique craft, which remains an essential part of the legal profession in the United Kingdom to this day.
