Tree surgeons are the unsung heroes of the arboreal world, tirelessly working to ensure the health and safety of our beloved trees. With their expertise in tree surgery, they perform delicate operations that keep our urban forests thriving. In an untitled colour litho artwork, we catch a glimpse of a tree surgeon at work. Well roped for safety, Ian Rose fearlessly prunes an old pine, his skilled hands carefully shaping its branches with precision and care. Another image transports us to a forest where a man donning a yellow hard hat and plastic mask stands tall amidst nature's giants. Armed with an electric saw and tools belt, he fearlessly fells a towering tree while a lorry loaded with trunks waits in the background. The elevated view showcases both his bravery and the magnitude of his task. Traveling across continents to Tasmania's Huon Forest, we witness the felling of a majestic Blue-Gum Tree. The sheer size of this endeavor is awe-inspiring as it highlights not only the skill but also the strength required by these dedicated professionals. Looking back through time to 1939 in Crayford, Kent, we see maintenance men utilizing unconventional methods to trim overhanging branches above them - using none other than a double-decker bus. Their resourcefulness knows no bounds as they navigate heights most would shy away from. Returning to Crayford once more during that same year, two determined men tackle another formidable task together. Working side by side with saw in hand, they methodically bring down yet another tree under their expert guidance. As if frozen in time itself, we witness again those brave souls from Crayford drawing their saw blades through thick trunks. Their unwavering dedication is evident as they laboriously complete each cut - ensuring every step is executed flawlessly. These captivating images capture just some glimpses into the world of tree surgery; however William A. Bolton's photograph encapsulates the essence of this noble profession.
