EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lowkers" takes us back to the rural landscapes of 19th-century England. Engraved by Robert Havell the Elder and published in 1814 by Robinson and Son, this artwork offers a glimpse into the lives of farmworkers during that era. Originally known as "Lookers" these individuals were employed to meticulously weed between corn plants by hand, occasionally utilizing simple tools. In this scene, we see women diligently working in a vast cornfield. The woman at the forefront holds a grub, an essential tool used for removing thistles from the crops. On the right side, a young girl grasps a clam or pair of nippers, likely assisting her elder companion with tasks within their reach. The artist George Walker beautifully captures both the laborious nature of agricultural work and the innocence of childhood amidst it all. This color lithograph portrays not only scenes from daily life but also highlights traditional farming practices that have evolved over time. Part of The Stapleton Collection and now housed in a private collection, this engraving serves as an invaluable historical document showcasing English rural life during this period. As we admire this image today, let us reflect on how far we have come while appreciating those who toiled tirelessly to sustain our agricultural heritage.
