EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling streets of Copenhagen Fields, Islington, London in 1834. The artist W Summers skillfully captures a significant moment in history - the meeting of the Metropolitan Trades Unions. The image showcases a vast expanse of farmland that once dominated this area, now transformed into a vibrant gathering place for trade unions. The mezzotint technique used by Summers adds depth and richness to the colors, bringing life to every corner of the scene. Intriguingly, this snapshot from the 19th century offers a glimpse into England's industrial revolution and its impact on society. As we observe closely, we can see a diverse crowd assembled at this historic event; men and women from various trades joining together in solidarity. Copenhagen Fields becomes an emblematic location where workers unite to fight for their rights and better working conditions. This image serves as a testament to their resilience and determination during an era marked by rapid social change. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery's collection, this print not only documents an important historical event but also reminds us of the power that lies within collective action. It is through such moments captured in time that we gain insight into our past struggles while inspiring future generations towards progress and equality.
