EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a trade card from the 19th century, featuring George Langridge & Company, renowned stay manufacturers. The engraving, created by English School artist E Owen of Bull Street in Birmingham, beautifully captures the essence of this thriving industry. The image transports us back to a time when factories and industrial buildings dominated the landscape of England. The towering chimney emits plumes of smoke, symbolizing the bustling activity within. This snapshot into history provides insight into the social fabric and manufacturing prowess that defined Victorian England. The trade card itself serves as a testament to George Langridge & Company's reputation as leaders in their field. Stays were an essential component of women's fashion during this era, providing support and structure to garments. As we gaze upon this piece, we can almost imagine the skilled craftsmen meticulously creating these intricate pieces with utmost precision. Beyond its historical significance lies a deeper appreciation for European culture and craftsmanship. Germany's influence is evident through references to Germanic traditions and architecture seen in both design elements and building styles depicted on the card. As we admire this remarkable print from Fine Art Finder's Valerie Jackson Harris Collection, let us reflect on how far our world has come since those industrious days while cherishing the rich heritage left behind by companies like George Langridge & Company.
