EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1914, titled "Man working in his office, with secretary behind" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century business. The image showcases a distinguished gentleman diligently engrossed in his work at a grand wooden desk. With an air of contemplation and determination, he is captured mid-thought while holding a telephone receiver to his ear. Behind him stands his loyal secretary, typewriter poised and ready to transcribe any dictations or correspondence required. Her presence adds an element of efficiency and professionalism to the scene. This dynamic between employer and employee highlights the hierarchical structure prevalent during this era. The attention to detail in this lithograph is remarkable; every line meticulously etched by the English School artist who created it. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication, perfectly capturing the essence of early 20th-century office life. Originally used as an advertisement for Enos Fruit Salt in Pears Annual magazine, this digitally cleaned print now resides within a private collection. Preserved through time, it serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to the timeless nature of human ambition and dedication. As we gaze upon this evocative artwork today, we are reminded of how far our workplaces have evolved since that era – yet some elements remain constant: hard work, collaboration between colleagues, and the pursuit of success continue to shape our professional lives even now.
