EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Massachusetts. Lynn. Shoe factories, 1895?: a lining stitcher (woman) at work, (1895?)" captures a moment in time during the 19th century American industrial revolution. The image, created by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a glimpse into the world of shoe manufacturing in Lynn, Essex County, Massachusetts, United States. The photograph features a lining stitcher, a woman intently focused on her task at hand. She sits in front of a large, ornate sewing machine, her hands deftly guiding the needle as she stitches the lining of a shoe. The room around her is filled with the hum of machinery and the rhythmic clacking of sewing machines, a testament to the factory's production line. The scene is set in a shoe factory, with a carriage boot lying nearby, partially completed. The building, with its large windows and red brick walls, is a symbol of the industrialization that was transforming the country. The woman's attire, simple and practical, reflects the working-class nature of her occupation. This photograph is a valuable historical record of the shoe industry in Lynn, Massachusetts, and the role of women in the workforce during the late 1800s. It offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the heritage and history of American industry and fashion.
