EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured woodcut engraving depicts the intricate process of soapmaking in an 1810 English factory. At the heart of the scene, a skilled craftsman meticulously cuts hardened soap using a copper wire in wooden frames. The soap, which has been carefully crafted from a mixture of boiling fat and lye, cools and solidifies in these frames before being sliced into individual bars. The soapmaker's attention is focused on his task, while another worker stirs the vat of bubbling liquid, ensuring an even consistency. The boiler, filled with the essential ingredients, is heated to facilitate the chemical reaction that transforms the fat and lye into soap. The use of copper wire and wooden frames is a testament to the traditional methods employed in the soapmaking industry during this era. The handcoloured woodcut engraving, taken from 'The Book of English Trades and Library of the Useful Arts,' offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of soapmaking, showcasing the dedication, skill, and craftsmanship required to produce this essential household item. The intricate details and rich colours bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to witness the artistry and labour that went into creating soap over two centuries ago.
