EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the Design Department of Raphael Tuck & Sons, a renowned fine art publishing house based in London during the early 20th century. Established in 1866, Tuck & Sons were pioneers in producing high-quality prints, cards, Almanacks, and postcards, becoming one of the leading publishers in their field during the 19th and 20th centuries. The image portrays a bustling designing room, where a team of dedicated women are engrossed in their work. Their focused expressions and the myriad of sketches, drawings, and design elements scattered around them attest to their creativity and dedication. The room is filled with an atmosphere of collaboration and innovation, as each woman contributes her unique artistic talents to the creation of Tuck & Sons' exquisite offerings. The photograph, taken in 1903, underscores the significant role women played in the company's success. They were not only the faces behind the beautiful designs but also the driving force behind the production of these cherished keepsakes. The image serves as a testament to the power of creativity, collaboration, and the invaluable contributions of women in the world of art and design. As the holiday season approaches, this photograph brings to mind the countless Christmas cards and postcards that graced the mailboxes of families and friends during the early 20th century, each one a testament to the skill and artistry of the women of Raphael Tuck & Sons' Design Department.
