EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in April 1881, showcases the groundbreaking Electric Lighting system installed in the residence of Sir William Armstrong, a visionary industrialist and pioneer of the 19th century. The image, titled "Electric Lighting in the Side-room (Cragside) of Industrialist William Armstrong," reveals the enchanting ambiance of Swan Lighting illuminating the cozy side-room of Armstrong's home, Cragside. Sir William Armstrong, a renowned figure in the realm of science and industry, was a pioneer in the application of electricity for both military and domestic purposes. In the 1870s, he began the installation of electric lighting in his home, making Cragside the first residence in the world to be lit entirely by electricity. The Swan Lighting, named after its inventor, Sir Joseph Swan, was the primary source of light in this innovative household. The photograph offers a glimpse into the captivating world of 19th-century technology, where electricity was a novel and transformative force. The soft, warm glow of the Swan Lighting casts an ethereal light over the room, creating an inviting and cozy atmosphere. The image serves as a testament to the ingenuity and vision of Sir William Armstrong, who, in the heart of the 1880s, brought electricity into the home, revolutionizing the way we live and illuminating our world in more ways than one.
