EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Frozen Meat, 1923" takes us back to a significant era in the early 20th century. The creator of this intriguing image remains unknown, but its historical value is undeniable. Featured in H. Clive Barnard's book "Australia, New Zealand and Oceania in Pictures" it offers a glimpse into the local industry of Aotearoa (New Zealand) during that time. The photograph captures an abattoir scene where men are diligently working amidst hanging carcasses and meat hooks. Their occupation as butchers reflects the importance of the meat trade and export business for the country's economy. With cold storage facilities visible in the background, frozen food production was clearly a vital aspect of their work. The monochrome composition adds depth to this portrait of laborious men engaged in their profession. It serves as a reminder of how different life was just under a century ago – when freezing technology was still relatively new and manual labor played an essential role. As we observe this snapshot from history, we can't help but appreciate both its artistic qualities and its documentation of an important period for Australia, New Zealand, and Oceania as they navigated through advancements in food preservation techniques. This print truly encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also the dedication these individuals had towards their craft within this thriving industry.
