EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transport us back in time to the late 1890s in Burrawang, New South Wales, Australia, where the wool industry was thriving. In this image, we witness the intricate process of wool sorting and classing, a crucial step in the shearing cycle. The interior of the shed is filled with the rustic charm of the past, with rough-hewn beams supporting the ceiling, and the warm glow of sunlight filtering in through the windows. The men, dressed in work clothes and hats, are intently focused on their task, their faces etched with determination and concentration. The baskets and storage areas in the background reveal the vast quantities of wool that have been processed, each one carefully sorted and classified based on its quality and type. The baskets, some filled to the brim, are ready to be transported to the next stage of the wool processing journey. The scene is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the farmers and laborers who played a vital role in the Australian wool industry during this period. The process of wool sorting and classing was a labor-intensive task, requiring a keen eye and a deep understanding of the wool market. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history of the wool industry in Australia, a time when the industry was at the heart of the country's economy. The image captures the essence of the working farm life, the camaraderie among the workers, and the importance of the wool industry to the community of Burrawang and beyond.
