EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Crew of Twenty-one Workmen Posing With Tools Outdoors, 1860s-80s" captures a group of hardworking men in 19th century America. The unknown creator skillfully portrays the essence of their occupation and the era they lived in. Standing proudly outdoors, these twenty-one workmen exude strength and determination as they pose with their tools. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of the time - dressed in overalls and hats, each man showcases his individual style while maintaining a sense of unity among them. The setting adds to the charm of this image; an exterior location surrounded by nature's beauty serves as a reminder that even amidst industrialization, there was still a strong connection to the country. A wagon nearby hints at their mode of transportation or perhaps signifies their profession. Preserved through ferrotype or tintype photography techniques, this remarkable piece from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection transports us back to a bygone era. It allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship behind capturing such moments but also offers insight into the lives and experiences of working-class individuals during that time period. As we gaze upon this photograph print by Unknown, we are reminded of our shared heritage and pay homage to those who labored tirelessly for progress in America's past.
