EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a wigmaker carefully crafts a new wig for the legal profession in his full and cluttered workroom at Temple, London, in 1910. The artisan, dressed in a simple white shirt and apron, focuses intently on his work bench as he shapes and forms the plush fabric with skilled dexterity. The wig, in its early stages, is held in place on a stand, its bottomed edges curling upwards as the wigmaker meticulously trims and molds it to perfection. The atmosphere in the workshop is one of quiet concentration and dedication, with the soft light filtering in through the windows casting long shadows across the room. The walls are adorned with various wigs in various stages of completion, while accessories such as judges' robes and other legal attire are neatly arranged on shelves and hooks. The room is a testament to the rich history and tradition of wigmaking, a trade that has been an essential part of the legal profession for centuries. The wigmaker's tools of the trade are spread out before him, including scissors, brushes, and other implements, all carefully arranged within easy reach. The intricacy and attention to detail required to create these wigs is evident in the wigmaker's focused expression and the precision of his movements. The final product will be a full and ornate wig, complete with the distinctive curled edges and tall, pointed crown that have become synonymous with the legal profession. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of wigmaking, a trade that continues to be an important part of the legal community to this day. The image captures the dedication and skill of the artisan, as well as the rich history and tradition that surrounds this unique and intriguing craft.
