EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century in France, capturing the essence of a French pointsman at work. From the renowned collection "French Pictures" by Rev. Samuel G. Green, published in 1878, this image provides a glimpse into the important role played by these railway signalmen during that era. Intriguingly framed by Ken Welsh's artistic touch, we see a man fully immersed in his occupation as he guides trains along their designated paths. Dressed in traditional attire of the time, this pointsman stands tall with an air of authority and expertise. With his hand firmly on the lever, our protagonist skillfully communicates through signals to ensure safe passage for passing locomotives. His focused expression reveals both concentration and responsibility as he carries out his duty amidst bustling railway tracks. The illustration transports us to an era when rail travel was booming across France. It serves as a reminder of how crucial these unsung heroes were in maintaining order and preventing accidents on busy railways. Ken Welsh's masterful reproduction allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also the artistry behind this photograph from over a century ago. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to an age where men like our French pointsman guided progress along iron tracks with unwavering dedication and precision
