Weaving looms
Weaving looms, historical artwork. The invention of the mechanized weaving loom in late 18th century England began the Industrial Revolution. These power looms were the first machines to " mass produce" items for sales, and rooms like this were the forerunners to factories. The Industrial Revolution was marked by a centralisation of production, increased mechanization and division of labour amongst workers.
