EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph, titled "Bamboo Work" showcases the intricate craftsmanship of 19th-century English artisans. The print, part of a private collection, is believed to have been created for Cassells Cyclopaedia of Mechanics edited by Paul N Hasluck around 1890. The image transports us back to the early 19th century, when craft industries and guilds flourished. In this workshop scene, we see skilled craftsmen meticulously working on various pieces of furniture. A single chair takes center stage as it undergoes its transformation into a beautiful upholstered piece. Surrounding it are other chairs in different stages of completion. The vibrant colours used in the lithograph bring life to the iron materials and metallic tools scattered throughout the workshop. A clock hangs on one wall, reminding us that time is an essential element in these meticulous creations. Beyond furniture making, other crafts are also represented in this illustration. An umbrella and parasol catch our attention with their delicate design and attention to detail. A screen stands tall against one wall while cabinets and cupboards hold treasured items within them. This historical artwork offers a glimpse into a bygone era where craftsmanship reigned supreme and every piece was made with care and precision. It serves as a reminder of the rich history behind our everyday objects and celebrates the skillful hands that brought them to life.
