EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the bustling workshop of Ws and C H Thomsons Skirt Manufactory. The image showcases a significant moment in history, as it was originally published in The Illustrated News of the World on 29th December 1860. The sheer scale of this factory is awe-inspiring, with rows upon rows of workers diligently crafting skirts. It's hard not to be amazed by the magnitude of this operation, which played a vital role in clothing countless individuals during that era. The intricate details captured by the English School artist allow us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in producing these garments. Each worker can be seen meticulously working on their assigned tasks, ensuring every skirt meets the highest standards. As we gaze at this historic print, we are reminded of how fashion has evolved over time. These wide skirts were undoubtedly fashionable during their heyday but have since become iconic symbols of an era long gone. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now admire this piece from our own private collection. This remarkable engraving serves as a testament to both the ingenuity and labor-intensive nature of early textile manufacturing processes. Let us cherish this glimpse into history and marvel at how far we've come since those days when Ws and C H Thomsons Skirt Manufactory stood tall as one of Britain's leading clothing manufacturers.
