EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the intricate workings of a Griswold circular rib knitting machine, an iconic piece of machinery that revolutionized the hosiery trade in the early 20th century. The print, created by an English School artist, is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Arthur J Pickering's book "The Cradle and Home of the Hosiery Trade" published by W Pickering & Sons in 1940. In this detailed illustration, we are transported back to a time when stockings, underwear, lingerie, and other undergarments were meticulously crafted using these innovative machines. The image showcases the mechanical precision required for producing such delicate garments on a large scale. It serves as a testament to both the history and significance of Leicestershire as one of Great Britain's prominent centers for textile production. With its clean lines and expertly rendered details, this lithograph offers viewers a glimpse into the past while highlighting advancements in clothing manufacturing during this era. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, it reminds us not only of our sartorial heritage but also pays homage to those who contributed to shaping modern fashion through their ingenuity and craftsmanship.
