EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "PITTSBURGH: STEEL MILL" takes us back to the early 1900s, offering a glimpse into the bustling steel industry in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The image showcases a yard of steel works, where men can be seen diligently working amidst towering smokestacks and billowing smoke. The photograph, captured as a stereograph in 1905, encapsulates the essence of industrialization during that era. It portrays an era when Pittsburgh was known as the Steel City due to its prominent role in steel production. The sheer scale of machinery and infrastructure depicted here is awe-inspiring. However, this powerful image also raises awareness about some negative aspects associated with industrial growth. The thick plumes of smoke emanating from the factory's chimneys serve as a stark reminder of pollution caused by such industries at that time. The hardworking steelworkers featured in this photograph symbolize the backbone of America's industrial revolution. They represent countless individuals who dedicated their lives to fueling progress through manual labor and craftsmanship. Preserved by the Library of Congress, this historical artifact offers us an opportunity to reflect on our past while appreciating how far we have come since then. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and perseverance in transforming raw materials into products that shaped our modern world.
