Workers offices of the Berdsk Consumer Society, 1880. Creator: GP Putintsev
Workers offices of the Berdsk Consumer Society, 1880. From a collection of 153 photographs and documents held in the Berdsk Historical Art Museum, drawn from the personal archives of people who lived in the town of Berdsk in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The collection offers glimpses into everyday life, the atmosphere, and the activities in Berdsk, a major center of grain processing at that time. The photographs show groups of students and teachers, local mills, people at work in agriculture and industry, soldiers, and children and youth. Most appear to date from the early Soviet era. The documents include tickets, ration cards, membership cards, and other items relating to farming, trade, crafts, mining, and so forth. Berdsk is located in Novosibirsk Oblast in central Russia, along the Novosibirsk Reservoir just south of Novosibirsk city. Founded at the beginning of the 18th century as a fortress, it became a city in 1944

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Workers' Offices of the Berdsk Consumer Society" by GP Putintsev, offers a rare glimpse into the workplace environment of late 19th century Russia. The image, part of a collection of 153 photographs and documents held in the Berdsk Historical Art Museum, provides a window into the daily life and activities of the bustling town of Berdsk, a significant center for grain processing during this era. Located in Novosibirsk Oblast, central Russia, Berdsk was founded in the early 18th century as a fortress and later became a city in 1944. At the time this photograph was taken, around 1880, the town was experiencing rapid growth, particularly in its agricultural and industrial sectors. The photograph shows a group of workers in their offices at the Berdsk Consumer Society. The room is filled with wooden desks and shelves, suggesting a busy and productive work environment. The workers, dressed in simple clothing, appear focused and engaged in their tasks. The atmosphere is one of industry and collaboration, reflecting the importance of collective efforts in the town's economic development. The Berdsk Historical Art Museum's collection, which also includes documents such as tickets, ration cards, and membership cards, offers valuable insights into the various aspects of life in Berdsk during this period. From agriculture and trade to mining and education, the collection paints a rich and detailed picture of a town that was at the heart of Russia's industrial revolution. This photograph, in particular, serves as a poignant reminder of the hardworking men and women who contributed to Berdsk's growth and success.
