EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken around 1915, we witness the construction progress of a grand new factory belonging to the Canadian subsidiary of the renowned Kodak company. Located in Ontario, Canada, this state-of-the-art facility was built to meet the growing demand for photographic products both domestically and internationally. The image captures the factory in its formative stages, with the skeletal framework of iron beams and brick walls rising against the backdrop of a clear, blue sky. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and industry, as workers in overalls and caps labor diligently to erect the structure. The ground around the factory is littered with construction debris and machinery, while in the distance, smokestacks belch plumes of steam and smoke, symbolizing the factory's eventual power and productivity. The Kodak factory in Ontario was a testament to the company's commitment to innovation and growth. Founded in 1888 by George Eastman, Kodak revolutionized the photographic industry with its introduction of the portable Kodak camera and the slogan "You press the button, we do the rest." By the early 20th century, Kodak had become a household name, and its products were used by millions of people around the world. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the industrial might and determination that drove the growth of Kodak and the photographic industry as a whole. It serves as a reminder of the transformative power of technology and the human spirit, as well as the enduring allure of the art of photography.
