EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Girl Workers of London - The Lady Florist," captures a moment in time from the late Victorian era, specifically in 1898. The image, taken by an unknown photographer and now available through Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the world of employment for young women in London during this period. The photograph features a group of young women, all dressed in simple, modest attire, working in a florist shop. Each woman is engrossed in her task, be it arranging flowers, preparing bouquets, or serving customers. Their expressions are focused and determined, reflecting the hard work and dedication required in their profession. The lady florist, who stands at the center of the photograph, is a vision of elegance and grace amidst the bustling shop. She wears a long, flowing skirt and a blouse with a high collar, her hair neatly pulled back into a bun. With a pair of scissors in hand, she expertly trims a rose, her eyes fixed on the task at hand. The shop itself is filled with an array of vibrant flowers, their colors and fragrances adding to the scene's charm. The wooden shelves and display cases are filled with bouquets, wreaths, and other floral arrangements, all ready for customers to take home. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of young women working in London during the late Victorian era. It highlights the important role that women played in the workforce, even in traditionally male-dominated industries like floristry. The image is a testament to their hard work, dedication, and the beauty and grace they brought to their jobs.
