EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Procession of match-makers to Westminster" takes us back in time to the year 1892. The scene is bustling with activity as a crowd of determined match-makers march through the streets towards Westminster. Led by a vibrant banner held high above their heads, these industrious workers are on a mission. The image captures both the unity and determination of this group as they make their way through the city. Their purposeful strides suggest that they are not just marching for show but rather for an important cause. Perhaps they are demanding better working conditions or fair wages, fighting against injustice within their industry. Amidst the procession, we spot a dispute unfolding between two individuals, adding an element of tension to the scene. A vigilant policeman stands nearby, ready to intervene if necessary. The dated quality of this print adds historical significance and allows us to reflect on how far society has come since then. It serves as a reminder of past struggles and triumphs in labor rights movements. This remarkable engraving from William Douglas Almond offers us a glimpse into an era when collective action was essential for change. It invites us to ponder upon our own role in advocating for justice today while appreciating those who paved the way before us.
