EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Isleten, near Fluelen, Switzerland in the year 1893. The image captures a significant moment in history - the moulding of explosive gum cartridges at a munitions factory. This snapshot from the Illustrated London News transports us to an era where concepts of health and safety were vastly different from today. In this bustling workshop, we see a group of women diligently working together around a large table. They are meticulously packing these potentially dangerous cartridges with utmost precision. Dressed in Victorian-era attire, their presence adds an intriguing contrast to the otherwise industrial setting. The buildings surrounding them stand as silent witnesses to their tireless efforts. These structures house not only this munitions factory but also other industries that thrived during that time period. The panorama captured by this engraving showcases both the beauty of the Swiss countryside and its role as a hub for manufacturing armaments. As we delve into this historical photograph, it is impossible not to ponder upon the significance of these women's contribution during times of war. Their dedication and skill played an integral part in shaping our world today. Preserved through time by The Print Collector, this monochrome print serves as a reminder of how far we have come since those tumultuous days of conflict and innovation in the late 19th century.
