EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by Alfieri, takes us back to the early 1920s at Atalanta works in Loughborough. The image showcases two remarkable women, Miss Turner and Mrs Ashberry, who were breaking barriers as they examined blueprints with utmost precision. In an era when it was uncommon for women to hold positions of authority or work in male-dominated industries, these trailblazers defied societal norms. As designers and engineers at Atalanta works, they played a crucial role in shaping the future of this industrial hub. The monochrome composition adds a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing the significance of their work during that period. Their determination and expertise are palpable through their focused expressions as they meticulously analyze intricate blueprints. This snapshot offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history when women were beginning to challenge gender stereotypes and make significant contributions to various fields. It serves as a testament not only to Miss Turner's and Mrs Ashberry's individual accomplishments but also highlights the collective efforts of countless other female workers who paved the way for future generations. Alfieri's masterful capture encapsulates both the resilience of these pioneering women and the spirit of progress that defined Europe during this transformative time.
