EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing Thomas Owen & Co's Ely Paper Works in Cardiff. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in an illustrated publication titled "Progress of British Newspapers in the Nineteenth Century" around 1901. The lithograph beautifully captures the essence of manufacturing history, news, communication, and advertising during this era. It serves as a reminder of how newspapers played a crucial role in disseminating information to the masses. In this bustling scene, we see workers diligently engaged in their tasks within the paper works factory. The intricate details highlight the machinery used for newspaper production at that time. This visual representation offers insight into early twentieth-century techniques employed by companies like Thomas Owen & Co. The presence of a newspaper stand signifies the importance of journalism and daily press during this period. Advertisements displayed on its surface reflect an era when print media served as one of society's primary sources for information and commercial promotion. As we admire this historic lithograph from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it transports us back to a time when newspapers were not only essential tools for communication but also vibrant symbols representing progress and innovation within society.
